I hear a bird singing
in the night
Why do birds sing at night?
He seems happy
in the dark
But not I
I cannot move beyond
I'm stuck in the mysery of love
I just dwell
in this familiar place
until the moon meets the sun
Sad memories await
silently  
waiting to break all that's good about me
Taking my abilities
breathing my air
Finding my faults
and hunting me
But my day will come
soon I hope
when even though my love is gone
I will be able to sing my song

My daughter thinks they sing at night just to personally annoy her. Hehe. When I hear them singing at night, it comforts and inspires me, and I think about the great circle of life that surrounds me. Your bird sounds as if he reminds you that you no longer have what you want. I'll send you one of my birds tonight. Maybe you will enjoy his tune better.

Bless the bird that sings in the night~
For he brings a song to our hearts to share on the dawning~

Nicely done~
