[title] => Will A Bird Sing If You Break It's Wings Or It's Heart?
[time] => 2007-01-17 18:26:52
[hometext] => How will you know if that bird can sing if it never has the strength, how will you know if it can fly if you never set it free?
[bodytext] => To feel safe in no one's arms but my own To keep my live in my hands for some control The same hands that write to you now The same arms that protect me and legs that run hope-bound I will abide, to these rules. This nerurosis Can subside, I will feel somthing new Only after the above, will I be able to feel What I can of love, If it will cross my path To be unwanted, if only to be alone After working so had on myself, I should've known Oh, so feel; If only I could! To make this mutual, I know I should. Why can't I? Though, I act like I do, These lives given wings, mine sank, his flew! Like a bird into the hot sun, no second glance behind, All the while I was the only one not flying blind Perhaps I was, Though I did see his wandering eye The "hot sun" got to him, and eyes are like minds. Floating to bliss, so little he knows, Cupid's arrow had missed, so long ago Is he returning, if only it was to me. I always knew he had that yearning, but I let him free Kept m emotions barred, I can know Why the caged bird sings [comments] => 3 [counter] => 161 [topic] => 73 [informant] => SmileSkinDeep [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => abstract )
