"When you feel the sadness lingering: Question"

When you have laughed off all you can

and every bone in your body screams empty.

When you thought your heart was healed

but you only ignored the blood and learned how not to feel.

When you have done everything you have been told about

putting love back into your own soul

but you still go to bed noticing the sting of feeling

like everyone is being loved but you.

When you feel the sadness lingering,

but you try your best to fly...

How do you rid the darkness from your wings

long enough to leave the sky?
