Tap
I will wait
and ache the pain
of leftover words
and unstable remains

And I heard feet tapping.
to the beat
humming this song
played on repeat.

I will hold grip
to what you said
when your mind was hazy
waiting for bed.

And I heard feet tapping
to this lingering song.
It is getting much louder
and I seem less strong.

I don’t think Ill fall
in love again
but I will forgive you.
Forget what I said

They skipped a beat
and the song kept going
they lost the tempo
but the world kept spinning.

I know you believe
I am to blame
but i am tired of giving
all to my name.

does this song move too fast
or I go too slow
The beat is everywhere
my head will soon blow.

So I guess they're right;
it is my mind that you reign.
Time for I to walk
before I go insane.

insane.
….

This song

oh this song

stop the music

it hurts to hear

the truth.
We have all been there.

Silly little bird
Lost the direction
Drifting away
With the winds
Come home
Flutter in
Awaiting love
A calling
Pick a way
Following the stars
Mark the stones
Fly high
Through the night
Along the day
Back to realm
The heart
While it beats
The kingdom awaits

So empty and vain
Forced smile on cadaver
Carrying loads of misfortunes
Dead alive and alive when l sleep

Is it life or human design
To hammer my shell
And emerge broken bird
So they can doll me up to play

And the bird, he sang
to a rotting beat
behind missiles and prickles
and bombs thrown in the wind.

But the bird, he sang
to a lost melody
of the lack of humanity
who foreshadowed tragedy.

He whistled all he could
but the gun beat seemed to rule
and he sang to ignore,
to deny transition.

And the bird, he silenced.
The last bird flew away
up to the stars
where all the civilised remain.
Just wrote it, open to interpretation and comments for improvement!!!!
