I found out who I really am?
I\'m a soul that likes to be free
I don\'t like the mundane in life
I just want to be me
I don\'t want to follow any crowd
I don\'t like to copy the norm
I like to be different
but I still know my soul is warm
I have no fear of being alone
I like to have peace and time
I like to watch out the window
to watch the other birds in flight
I wonder are they souls like me?
are they happy just flying free?
I only have one great wish
the wish, to just be me
If it wasn’t for my gentle heart
my feathers would have burned fiercely
a soul that once had light
my freedom just a memory
I must reject these tiresome thoughts
that savage my taunted mind
reduce them to a petal of hope
with harmony entwined
I wish for the day
empathy opens my cage
and lets me fly away?
at least she knows I’ll do my best
determined, come what may
with forceful winds that once were tender
blowing me into the blazing sun
my courageous assumption of what could be
is yet to be undone
lightning strike my sorrowed heart
if I cannot be me
compassion strike my cage tonight
and let my mind fly free.
