Clipped Wings

Clipped Wings

A Poem by Sonya Elizabeth B.
"

I wrote this the day after my birthday, these lyrics hold alot of meaning for me. I would intrepret them as a foresaken unrequitted love. I beilve every girl(and maybe, ever guy) has something this painfull in her life at least once. Yes, this is about ho

"

(Spoken, as if on the phone)           " No, no, I'm fine, yeah really, its just a bruse or two, no, I'm not battered to bad, yeah, I know I need to get out, but I..., but I, I will... "(disconection tone)

Verse 1
Sometimes, I just feel unloved,
You know I gave everything,
I even gave it up to you,
You know this is all I have now,
The shelter of the kitchen floor,
It's cold against my battered arms,
And for once I'm safe,
For when I lie,
I cannot fall anymore,
And The only Time I feel Like you Love me,
Is when you unwillingly,
Make me love you,
And I just want you to know

Chorus 1
In the Darkness of the Night,
Trust me, I still have my Fight,
My Wings may be Clipped,
And My Hope May Be Crushed,
But like a Bird,
My Wings will Grow,
And I will Learn to Fly Again,

Verse 2
And if I Fly away,
I hope Everything will Be okay,
But I can't walk away,
For the fear maybe,
Baby, forever could be you and me,
And, last night, while you were sleeping,
I packed a trash bag full of clothes,
I figured, If you Didn't see me leaving,
You couldn't convince me,
That I couldn't live without you,
You couldn't yell at me, or call me a w***e,
But this time was diffrent,
As I stood at the door,
You Just Pleaded, as you Hazelnut eyes melted my heart,
I herd you cry,
I can't live with out you,
I have a knife,
If you go I will attempt,
No, I will commit suiside
And some how,

Chorus 2
In the Darkness of the Night,
God Said Trust me,
I will Give you your Fight,
Your wings are no longer clipped,
And I will teach you how to fly,
You can fly together,

Verse 3
So, again, I dropped my bags at the door,
Tears were unavoidable,
I began to cry,
I love you, I need you,
You are me life,
As I extended my arms, I fianally felt love,
Before I began to float to heaven,
Her pulled out an 84,
Out of those pants, that have allways been to blaggy,
And then and there,
My wings grew back,
But I didn't use them,
I floated on a cloud instead

Sonya Elizabeth B.
I think there will be spelling issues forever more.
When I have the means to download the spell check tool, and the time, I will return to all my previous writtings and spell check them.
How do you interpret these lyrics?
Can you relate, is any meaning help in them for you?
What could I enhance/change to better my writing?
Do you think this would be better as a diffrent style of writing?
Feel free to critique on diffrent criteria. Comments and feedback are welcome and encouraged. Thank you for taking the time to read my writing.
