trapped

no matter how many days go by
and how much i do my best to try
to forget you when i look up the sky
to me you're still free and soaring
still daring to dream; not quitting!
And most of all certainly not leaving
yet you did, you gave up and you left
not caring about us, about the rest
like a young bird fallen from its nest
you tried to soar but fell into a trap
and then you gave your life to death
and now as you lay buried in earth
a body rotting and a spirit trapped
