Analysis of Finding Her Wings



She washes her face with her tears
Hiding behind a veil of fears
Upon her sleeve sits her heart
Making it easily torn apart
Swallowing a spoonful of regret
Leaving her desperate for whatever she can get
Sadly she wears a crown of shame
Filling her pockets full of blame
She washes away all these things
Only to find she has wings
