upset little bird

a bird sits on the pavement
her wings are fixed to her side  
with superglue
she wishes to break free  
from the wings which shackle her
a stuck, helpless little bird
attempts to flap open her wings
they only last seconds
scared, helpless trapped little bird  
with wings fixed  
to her side with superglue
unable to soar
unable to live a meaningful role  
whats the point of being a bird  
if you cannot fly like one?
standing on the grey pavement
looking up at the birds  
flapping, alive in the sky
she cries,  stuck and unable to break free  
poor little bird with her superglued wings
trapped in the wrong place
trapped on the pavement
unable to fly the sky  
her spirit is crying to be amongst flying birds
trapped on the floor  
the ugly grey pavement  
poor little bird,  stupid superglued wings  
cursed with a horrible life
cursed to be on the pavement  
when she should be flying the sky  
poor little bird  
why can she never fly
undeserving,  stuck and craving
hurt by every bird, flying the sky
wings hurting , little feet tired
from the years  of hurt  
wings exhausted from living a lie  
tired, taunted and jealous  
every single bird  
who can live their life  
freely, happily, safely
the normal life, the nice one  
i am that bird
and i'm still waiting to be free  
to live life the way i have the right to
i am still on the ugly pavement
when every ounce of my being  
every ounce of my spirit  
is telling me i am meant to be free  
i am tired from the years of hurting  
little feet bruised on the pavement  
i am tired of the glue holding down my wings
beyond tired, i just want to soar the sky  
i want to feel everything, i want to live  
why isn't that allowed
