Bye Bye, Black Bird ♥



And like a bird, I will fly free.
My wings may be clipped from life's hardships,
but I will not stay chained and immobile.

Stop me, if you must,
but I will sing of better days until my voice
breaks off into silent whispers,
barely heard over the bustle of living.

No one said learning to fly again would be easy;
Anything in life rarely is.

I will flap my wings until my heart wears out,
and when that happens, I will falter.
For a brief second, I will lose my courage, my ambition,
and like a hummingbird will I die.

The reign you have over me must be squelched
through my own power or through my memory.
Either way, I will soar above you,
never batting an eye to the life I once lead.
(me)
