My heart was breaking as I watched the scene before me
Unknowingly restrained from movement knowing not what to do
I watched as you made your mind up with your plan to take flight
Leaving alone in the dead of the night
I watched as you took your steps one at a time and watched as you faltered
From what you were leaving behind
Tears in your eyes from heartbreak Unknown to those around
Heart beating fast as your courage grew
You in your heart knew what you had to do
Watching you leave I wondered the cause but seeing your tears
I stopped at a pause
Leave behind your past from here on out
Let your wings spread free an angel that was grounded
From birth fly to your freedom and grow in mirth
We love the you that was,
But we love what you are meant to be the same
Fear not our anger for there's come none to pass
As I watched you leave through the windows glass
