Oh Little Swan
You have been hurt
By the touch
Of the vicious man
Oh Little Swan
The things you would do
For the love of your life
His smile and eyes blue
Oh Little Swan
Your fragile body
Vanishes into thin air
With every turn
Oh Little Swan
You long to be free
From memories of
Anguish and misery
But this day
Will never come
Dry your tears
Little Swan
Smile and say your goodbyes
On this cold, dark day
I wrote this poem after I read Flightless Bird and got inspired by the story.
