A little bird sits on the outside
Waiting for the bigger ones to finish
What they've came to enlarge their pride
She waits and listens to the loud sounds
Of mockery and injustices
Because of breadcrumbs they've found
They squawk because she's not as colorful as them
They're flashy and loud with strong opinions
The little bird weeps and feels she's sinned
She wants to get out because she feels she is not free
Her nest is a cage because she isn't allowed
To play and laugh with other birds that she's seen
She looks at a distance and envies those who could
Joke with other birds about things they've done
One day she knows there will be a time she would
But for now she tries to keep apart
From those birds she sees happily together
And pain goes through her little heart
