Mockingbird
why must you hurt me? Why cant you listen?
I guess mockingbirds only mock
you don't care of me, you care of your image with me
because the mockingbird only mocks
you say you need me, though I beg to differ
but mockingbird you don't understand, for all you know is mock
you want to love me, and keep me forever
'tis just the flattery of a mock bird
I have life, not death for you
poor mocked at mockingbird
I might be dead but at least in the light,its better than a life buried six feet down
poor, unaware mockingbird
your large cushion nest made only of bones
comfortable only for mocked old bird
I hate you old bird, not innocent dove
a raven mocked over time
a black raven blind, flying through day
don't you know its not dark yet, mock flight?
Raven says don't be a prince
he mocks the royalty
he thinks it spoils an appetite of life
bird mocks a portioned meal
why must you hurt me? Why cant you listen?
I guess mockingbirds only mock
