Weep

Weep, Weep
Little red bird
Little rose bud
Flowerless on a hedge 

Frozen tears
Little blue bird
Passing over time 
Clear skies on cloudy days

A paper cut
Little black bird 
Tips your red wings
Bleeding like my heart

A coo, A coup 
Little white dove 
Beneath the willow 
Crying out for silence

Sometimes, it slips
Clipped wings grow
As minds forget
We could ever fly
