I saw a baby bird in danger
So I rescued it from the alley cats that wanted it dead
I fed him and kept him warm in a nice comfy bed
I nurtured him and cared for him
I wanted him to grow and live his life free
But today I buried him instead
I tried to save him once more from the power of death
I gave him gentle cpr and gave him my tiny breaths
I cried so hard once again feeling helpless
And another piece of me bare
I shouted out loud, why?? Why??
It’s so so unfair!
I named him Nico this sweet baby bird
I said my goodbyes and told him I was sorry and I know that he had heard.
I failed once again
You just can’t win fighting death
I’ve lost every battle each time
Just for once I wanted victory to be mine!
Now I think about it
I fail at everything I do
Why doesn’t god just spare me all my heartache
And just take my life too.

You did not fail
Far from it
Your love and care are what that baby bird felt at the end
You took the pain of failure, helplessness etc
Nico took your love
That is magical not failure
Enjoyed
Thank you peto 🙏🏻
