    broken bird

    I am but a broken bird who's
    lost her will for flight,
    I am but a song that's sung
    in the deepest darkest night.

    Not one of those of learned degree's
    has the seed to my repair,
    my fate has been spoken among
    the trees she has only but dispair.

    So cast not your lot to me my love
    for these wings they cannot fly
    the only thing that they can do
    is wave a disheartened goodbye.

    I had to read this a couple of times. It sounds to me like the wings are fine. I think the bird needs to locate what it THINKS it's lost. Still, a very good rhythmic read.

    SAD..... but very, very goog. this is beautiful, ever so slightly off your regular style. wonderful....

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
