broken wings

fallen into depth
and can’t get out
the muddy waters that my feet stick in
sink through my skin
and i’m absorbing
all the darkness
i can feel it
musing in my lungs
and i would not be here
if not for my wings
broken in flight
by a falling of touch
almost a lightening
so quickly i fell
crashing through clouds
which got so thick
that they slowed my descent
into a fog
until passed to beneath
to the darkness i dwell in
still now
