Bluebird



someone tried to kill
that little bluebird
in my heart

it almost drowned
in its own tears
it is resting now

one day it will heal
it will sing again
brighter than ever

  11. So the fluttering of our hearts are little birds in there after all. No wonder we feel as though we are flying when in love.
