Decaying Nest

I fly high

I fly high, I say

Watching idle lives go by

Feathers reaching out

Feathers reaching out, I say

Resplendent in each and every way

My wings were ruffled

My wings were ruffled, I say

Grabbed and clipped on this very day

I am a bird

I am a bird, I say

But my nest has already begun to decay
