If I were a bird,421Please respect copyright.PENANAx9baCp18dJ
I would sing with my sweetest voice,421Please respect copyright.PENANAHCaN4aFMZJ
Spilling melodies into the morning light,421Please respect copyright.PENANAdViddpdGB1
Perched on a bench in Hyde Park.
Buffeted by rain, torn by storms,421Please respect copyright.PENANAfl02dqVr8R
I would glide across the river,421Please respect copyright.PENANAglCjHDxvfm
Skimming the ripples of a world too loud,421Please respect copyright.PENANATNbokEWee2
Fluttering through the ego of men.
I would build my nest in their gardens,421Please respect copyright.PENANAzYK1iOCZJj
Perch on their trees, watch unseen.421Please respect copyright.PENANAkSVxjWxYmh
Whisper secrets to the flowers,421Please respect copyright.PENANAWgWeelXXQG
As if nature still belonged to me.
But the air would turn heavy in my lungs,421Please respect copyright.PENANAapLSBfUJE1
The water thick with man’s decay.421Please respect copyright.PENANA50KeR7oGQW
And I would falter, breathless,421Please respect copyright.PENANAZbNQBxGgCe
Drowning in what they left behind.
Alone, I would fall,421Please respect copyright.PENANAkyw7LZkEqI
No different from any other,421Please respect copyright.PENANAaUdY8KDjj4
A tiny, nameless thing,421Please respect copyright.PENANAiRIYlUSwqC
Swallowed whole—421Please respect copyright.PENANAzmlwOyz0VI
A life forgotten,421Please respect copyright.PENANAA8Md1MblOK
Vanished in the human world.
