Crippled Wings

A Letter to My Friends

To my dearest friends, hi.

I'm not quite sure whether you'll all be able to read this

Or if you'll still remember me when you do

But there are a couple of things I could never tell you myself

I may not remember everything

But I remember the times that count

Those beautiful memories of us laughing at the silliest things

And crying at the saddest things

You all

As cliche as this sounds

Helped me so much

You let me fly

These wings of mine were crippled once

They could handle the weight I carried

The weight that fell upon my shoulders like buildings

I wished that I could touch the sky

And run my hands through the clouds

I wished I could swoop down and see my reflection in bodies of water

I wished I could take you up there with my and enjoy the view

I couldn't

But you fixed me

You healed me

You let me fly

These once crippled wings of mine could now take me so high

And I would love to bring you up here with me

I can breathe now

Breathe so easily

I don't know what I've done to deserve your kindness

I don't know what I've done to deserve your time

I don't know what I've done to deserve you

But thank you so much

You have no idea how happy you've made me

How much you've changed my life

You all mean the world to me

Thank you

I love you

With love,
me.
