I wish I were a bird
Folder:
added 2010 I wish that I had been born a bird,
In times like these when Ive been torn and hurt.
When trouble came I could fly away,
So far away to a far away place.
With wings I could soar till my tears were all dry,
Until the seasons had changed and the days had gone by.
My life would be shorter but blissfully sweet,
I could cherish each moment and each new friend that I meet.
Instead I am weary and my heart has been strangled,
From those who found joy in leaving me lifeless and mangled.
I am but a life in a world of death,
Just a flicker of hope when there is nothing left.
But who cares who I am and who can see how I cry,
Someday I will be a memory that just lays down to die.
I wish I were a bird so that I could fly away,
I wish it so terribly especially today.
