Chilling Breeze

as the chilling breeze blows across my face
i imagine i'm in another place

a place so sweet i wanna cry
a place where no flower shall ever die

i spot a bird as it spreads its wings
as it takes off, it sings

i watch the bird fly high 
and suddenly fall to the ground beneath the sky

i watch the bird breathe its last breath
as it chokes until its death

i touch the bird and shout why
as i slowly begin to cry

i imagine i'm in another place
as the chilling breeze blows across my face
