Wounded Wings
	A poem inspired by the first ED


Darkness has swallowed the light
	Hope abandoned me by the wayside
		Future's door slammed shut in my face
	Despair cages me
The past haunts me

I've lost my rhythm
	The melody has faded into obscurity
		The words have lost their meaning
	Harmony has been replaced by discord
My heart holds no music

My heart is like a bird
	Wings far too injured to fly
		But someday it must
	Despite the pain
If I ever hope to live again

Someday I will learn that...

	Light never dies
	It just vanishes for a while

	Hope never abandons
	It just is lost temporarily

	Doors may slam shut
	But they cause other to open

	Despair cannot win over faith
	For hope springs eternal

	It's better to put the past where it belongs
	And look to the future

Someday I will learn
	Those words are true
		But for now...	

My heart is like a bird
	Wings far too injured to fly
		But someday it will
	Despite the pain
Because I want to live again
