I have an angel in my hands <br />But he seems to be slipping away <br />After all our years of nurturing <br />We've nothing left to say <br />I held his hand for years <br />To help him stand up tall <br />Yet now we seem so far from each other <br />And grace is helping him take his fall <br />His heart has taken lessons <br />His Wings have learned to fly <br />I watch him test their stability <br />As he disappears into the sky <br />Some day he will be gone <br />He is already so far from home <br />Now I watch him fly away from me <br />And I wonder if he can make it on his own<br /><br />Tatianna Rei Moonshadow<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/his-wings/
