 JANET'S PLANET

Fly Away


Birds are flying high in the sky

Why can't I?

I won't deny,

I need to fly away.

I'll come back another day.

Things will be fresh and new.

I won't feel so blue.

Birds can I fly away with you?

No one has a clue,

Of all that I am going through.

This pain in my heart.

Has torn me apart.

I've been holding on tight.

One day I will see light.

All I see is dark.

Grief has left its mark.

Birds flying high in the sky,

Can I fly away with you? I want to know why.

The very idea of a bird is a symbol and a suggestion to the poet.
