Once upon a day there was a bird trapped in a cage
and it sang a lonely song filled with sorrow
It longed for the day where it could fly away,
and never look back in to it's past
Once upon a day a girl came and sat by the cage,
and listened to the birds sorrow filled song
She smiled with joy at the beautiful tune
and left hastily at it's departure
Abounded was the bird lonelier then ever,
And it longed to sing no more
Then one day, the song when away
as did the girls appreciation.
She came very rarely and never stayed long
for the bird was useless without it's song
The bird grew lonely and it grew weak
And it longed so dearly to stretch it's wings.
Then one day the bird sang again,
and the girl became ecstatic.
After all she loved the bird -
and didn't want to see it waste away
But the bird knew the ugly truth,
that couldn't be denied.
The love was fake could easily break
So the bird better be careful.
Then once upon a day
the girl opened the cage,
and the bird flew out the window-
And she stared out as the tears streamed down
for she had realized what she had done
and without the bird's song
she might as well be caged.
