One time a bird flew to my window It stayed for awhile, then subtly flew off I'm not quite sure why but I felt hollow It was as though the bird had taken a piece of me It brought back memories of when you did the same to me I didn't even notice you there, but when you left you took everything I also envied how care free it left As though if didn't have a care in the world A bird doesn't have a home A bird doesn't have someone to hold on to A bird doesn't fear that someone will leave A bird is its own So since that day I have strived to be a bird {B.W.}
