Clipped Wings

by Sombul Augustine


Clipped wings 

When I confessed 
My love to you 
I felt my wings 
Being clipped 
When I confessed 
You were the one 
I became a 
captured dove
In a cage of love
Dreaming of a day
When I could fly away 
But a dream of flight
Is all it can be
Your love has
Clipped my wings 
It’s love, yes it is
But it’s a prison 
Of honey and tar
Which keep me glued
To the love that’s dark 
Only in my waking dreams 
I will fly away
With my clipped wings
