Baby bird

On the drive to work as the sun beams for Me My mind and core still always reeling Can't comprehend the depth of feeling As you helped to ease and fix A heart that had once all but stopped it's desperate beating Once a girl standing on a fresh grave With no words fitting for it's stone Sitting in offices, trying to act brave Counting pills in a hand that felt The death of part of its soul As it flew away like a wounded bird Wanting and yearning to be seen and be heard Broken and useless, Afraid and a burden Now a woman who's standing in her own grace A partner by her side , no longer lingering in place Words flowing deeply from her expanse Standing in her own scene , eyes gleaming Thankful her core has a fresh chance to dream Feeling the light winds of travel As a new bird that's just hatched Ready to see what life will unravel
