Like a Falling Bird

A bird can fly A bird can sing But it can also start falling A human is like a bird With feelings so fragile With hearts that can be pure Even we some times Can start to fall So ask me How does it feel to be a bird, A bird that's falling? My answer is very simple Humans are fragile They don't want hurt They see themselves as kings But really are not near there A person hurt by words Is a falling bird indeed A person pained for no reason Is a falling bird Many people are falling birds Birds that never find there way back up Now can you answer this Are you a falling bird?

hi, funny i should find a poem about birds, and the subject is treated much the same as a poem i wrote called "laughter", which i just posted. i am not a falling bird, i am a bird with a broken wing. but i personally could never fly anyway. you might like the poem, i just posted it. after i wrote it i found a bird with a broken wing walking home from the library, depressing, but still kind of neat.
