Broken Bird

by @jonas423

I am a broken bird I cannot fly, I only peep And hope that another will lift me up and away. I am a broken bird. I cannot fly, he's heard my peep But another has lifted me up and away. I am a broken bird. I cannot fly, I only cry He staggers into clouds and falters with my weight I am a broken bird. I cannot sing, I shall not peep I peck until he lets me fall I am a broken bird. I cannot swim, I shall not fly I will sink into this ocean I have fallen in I am a broken bird. I cannot swim, I shall not try I will drown in my volition where I have been left
