-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I started so small
With nothing to say for me at all
Just a bird in a world of birds
Just a being who has not much to show for themselves
I worked hard though
Even when everyone else cast me out
Threw me out
I stayed strong
I battled the forces of nature
As they came my way
I kept going
And learned to fly
I flew above everyone else
And saw what I had become
With my wings outstretched
I saw who I am;
A mockingbird

'You held my hand, as my eyes leaked, whispered my name and kissed my cheeks'

A\N :This is my first time writing poems so plz don't judge too harshly. Fair warning, not all my poems will make sense.
ausatmen,
einatmen,
versuchen zu leben,
nicht nur existieren,
diese monotonie bringt mich noch um...
keine freiheit,
gefangen,
langeweile,
desinteresse,
meine gedanken sind stumm...
