Sorrow Hurts

how can i fly?
with broken wings
how can i roar?
my wildest dreams
how can i reach?
the top of the world
how can i say?
those lovely words

how can i sing?
if there is no tune
how can i be happy?
if you cause my life of doom
how can i feel safe?
if i'm full of fears
how can i cry?
if there is no tears

I love this Alycia - especially how you've used rhetorical questions to build up on the theme. And the title is definitely very appropriate to the whole poem. Very nice!
