a poem- The Birds

The Birds

The birds are flying away from the nest

And the leaves are falling off the tree

They are like me

They are separating their selves from what they are told to believe.

That old wooden cross is now just two pieces of wood

When once it is where I proudly stood

But now I stand, unsteady

On natures evolving hand.

And I don’t feel as free,

But I do feel more alive

And I’m no better than a tree

We’re both just trying to survive.
