On The Broken Wings Poem by J. James Martinez

On the broken wings
Of my being

From the shallow gasps
Of borrowed time
Of bleeding scars
Of bleeding stars
Under bleeding skies
Of our divine

On the insights
Of my misguidings
Off erratic attacks
Of my whole

From the shallow gasps
Of borrowed time
Of bleeding scars on my heart
Of bleeding stars in my eyes

We will rise
Tribulations will leave us crowned
Broken kings of broken lands

Ashes
Dust in my lungs
Lives
Pouring from my mouth
