Fly/Love
Birds are meant to fly
Humans are meant to love
and when both of us die
We'll be free up above
So what if a bird is grounded?
And what if a human doesn't want to love?
What if he doesn't know how?
Does that make him wrong?
My mother told me,
"God loves us all"
and I believe her.
I love God, I love life
The part I'm confused with
is loving another life.
I know God loves me
so it should be easy
for people to love me too.
However I'm still questioning
How can I feel this reciprocation?
Loving and being loved
are hard things to balance...
I want to be like the birds,
flying high in the sky
I want to fall in love
and be loved before I die.
