LITTLE HURT BIRD:

Treated with a living shoulder
Found my place but not in choice
Is it right to keep my place
Whilst within me the rage of noise

I am not a child of joy
But still my heart a factory line
Producing from within a crop
The life and steps, tendered, mine

Given, prescribed, I wonder how
People find their way alone
Teach me, lead me on my way
My path, my job, but not my own

Growing pains, temporally bound
How can it be this way but not
A rollercoaster prison ride
Mistakes and hurts no-one forgot

I am but a grounded bird
Wounded, failed, alive
When I feel winds try to lift
My spirits, me, revive

  * I fly, fall, cry.


Sylvia.

We only fail if we give up, so little bird try again to fly, I'll run along beside to give chase, and make it fun,
Flap your tiny wings and beat the oppression of life down, far  below your wind.

Joel.

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
