The Bird Sings

The Bird Sings

The bird sings a joyous song
Yet, my heart shatters on
The sun continues to shine
The day is all but gone

I can see the glory
Contained in brightly colored wings
I know that its symbol is freedom
Still the little bird sings

I hear not the song
I know that it’s contained
Feel only its life flowing
Like blood through my veins

I think that I should smile
To let my colors show
I think the world would hear me
If I sing it from my soul

The bird sings a joyous song
Yet, my heart shatters on
The sun continues to shine
The day is all but gone
