Under Wing

Mother duck sits
So proud and strong
Watching her ducklings
Grow each day
Awaiting the day they fly away

For now her wee ones
Stay under wing
Their tiny sounds
She loves them to sing

I like to soak
My troubles away
Cleansing my soul
Removing the negative effects
Of a long hard day

I want to soar
Above the clouds
Day and night
Letting life drift by

I want to soar
Like a bird
Free from all the pain
Id never have to cry

I am still here, can’t you see

I may not be able to speak, but I understand the words you say

Please stop looking so pitifully at me

I am still here, can’t you see

I am trapped in a decrepit body, wish I could be free

“Please don’t let them forget about me!”, I silently pray

I am still here can’t you see

I may not be able to speak, but I understand the words you say

My words are frozen upon my tongue, how can this be

I used to speak so eloquently

I am still here, can’t you see

My limbs won’t move, they have failed me

I used to dance so beautifully
