Poems

Just Like A Feather

This one single bird

Has such a strong word

It can chirp day and night

Make me believe it is alright

I wish I didn't have to hide

I wish I could go outside

But I guess I'm like a feather on the bird

One day I'll fly away, examine the world

But what happens if I want to stay

What if I don't want to fly away

I know I can't keep pushing it off

I can't keep covering it with a cough

I know that one day I will have to fly away

Will you miss me, after that day

Will you even notice I'm gone

Or will you just simply move on

I guess we're all just like feathers on a bird

Destined to fall off, and be alone in the world

Be able to survive on our own

Live in a decent home

We can't stay on forever

We are as fragile as a feather

And I know that one day we will all fly away

With only goodbyes left to say

Because we are all just like feathers on a bird

Destined to fall and be alone in the world

But some of us won't make it

We will be the ones with the hardest hit

Some of us will become a ruined feather

Taken down and weakened by the weather

But some of us will stay strong

And some of us will hold on

But I am Just like the feather on a bird

And at some point I'll be alone in the world

And some day I will fly away

What will you say

What is the final words you'll say before I descend

What will you say in the end

I guess the choice is yours to make

Or will you just flake

I'm warning you now, I'm fragile as a feather

Easily hurt by any weather

The heat can burn me

The cold can freeze me

The wind can blow me away

Leaving me with nothing left to say

For now I sit and watch this bird

Survive in this cruel world

But one day I will fly away

What will you choose to say

Will you try and make me stay

Or will we go our separate ways

I'm just like a feather on that bird

And I'm trying to survive in this big, bad world.

I fell like this poem explains my life perfectly, because I know that one day I will be shoved out into the world, and there is nothing I can say or do to stop it. I just thought you guys wouldn't want all the nightmare poems right next to each other, so I wrote this one to lighten the mood just a smidge. Once again, I am half asleep while I am writing this, so don't judge. I just wanted to let you know, this is like chapter 30! I have, like, no reads at all. Sad right? Spread the word about these, unless you think they are total crap, but if you do, no one is forcing you to read this. I just wanted to say thank you to my friends, because I know that the day I am forced away, you will be there for me. You always have been. So, if you are actually reading this, thank you. You are some of the few people that actually care, and I am glad you care enough to hear me ramble on. I have to go, its already pretty late, but I'll start writing more poems, hopefully. Thanks again to those few people that actually care enough to read these stupid notes, I just want you to know that I care about giving you all info for my poems, and I'm glad you enjoy reading them! Sooooooo, goodnight, sleep tight, oh, and don't let those sneaky little critters bite. JK, but seriously, I'm gonna stop before this becomes the worlds longest authors note.
