A STRAY BIRD

Like a strayed bird
I wandered helplessly without a home
Every tree I found, could not shelter me
I could not find a world without disloyalty

I thought life eventually be better
But my precious thought sink into the water
Right between my eyes, it melted away
No one could lend a hand

The sunburns pierce my eyes
It pierces my heart and also my soul
I carry a wound that could not be healed
I am no longer afraid of being miserable

Would I ever find a person
Who can see through this shattered shell
The loneliness concealed in this wretched heart
Rescue and bring her back to the nest
