if i die,
would you care,
if i was eaten by a bear,
would you just stare,
or would you care,
i shouldn't stress,
i'm very blessed,
caught in a nest,
with twigs and thorns,
oh why was i born!

why,
oh why,
did you have to fly,
fly high,
so high,
into the night,
left me there,
so scared,
we had something we shared,
now i'm scared,
so scared,
why,
oh why,
did i let you go,
well now i know,
that once you go,
you're in a place where no one knows,
where you are,
maybe you're in the stars,
far,
so far,
away,
from here,
why.

the silence in the dead of night,
is sometimes as bright as a light.
it's quiet,
but so loud.

the cars along the highway,
slowly making their trek up a hill.
honking and yelling.

the wind,
whistling through the trees making me shiver.

the occasional plane,
going on its merry way up in the sky.

the low hum that always seems to be in the air.

the bright lights of the city,
blinding me.

the headlights carving the way along a dark path.

all the lights on in a house,
makes night seem like day.

night is supposed to be quiet and dark,
did humans have to ruin that too?

life is so short when you think about it.

crashing.
pain.
silence.
that is the life of a human being.

he said that he liked me, maybe even loved me.
i said the same.
but then he let me be.
said that he couldn't be tamed.

i said that it didn't matter.
i told him i loved him now.
he said he saw a pattern.
and that he had to move on somehow.

but not with me.
the one who loved him.
he'd rather let me be.
then go out on a whim.
