I am a bird free to fly away
Leaving the words I couldn’t say.
I stood in the rain, hoping in vain
Losing myself in silent pain.
I was a fire that warmed no one
A lonely moon chasing the sun.
Free to go, to find my way
But I choose to stay and fade away.
I could break free, release this chain
But I choose to love you, even in vain.

I am a bird free to fly away
Leaving the words I couldn’t say.
I stood in the rain, hoping in vain
Losing myself in silent pain.
I was a fire that warmed no one
A lonely moon chasing the sun.
Free to go, to find my way
But I choose to stay and fade away.
I could break free, release this chain
But I choose to love you, even in vain.
A heartfelt poem about unrequited love and the quiet pain of choosing to stay. Through soft metaphors, it shows the struggle between freedom and holding on to a love that won't return.
