Feeling like youve failed on a spiritual path
Broken Wings

In the end nothing left
But your unachieved dreams
Stagnated soul
No longer blessed
The spirit has lifted from me
I can't see
Surrounded by negative energy
A cold wind blows past
Your broken path
Deep grey clouds
Swirl in the sky
Rain falls as you begin to cry
Shattered wings
Like my dreams
I can no longer fly
Tethered to the Earth
I'm cursed
Fall from grace
Ethereal space
Heaven spit me out
Cast me down
Look upon me with disdain
Forsaken why you came
Physical realm
You had a taste
The experience you did waste
Broken angel
Fix your wings
Come back to the spiritual path
Peace it brings
You're not so far gone
Lift your head
You are not spiritually dead
On this path
We sometimes falter
Our decisions we need to alter
Put one foot
In front of the other
God will nurture
Like a mother
Get up
Don't quit
You have much support
In the spirit
