Bird song

Did you hear the bird sing last night?
He was singing to you.
Did you listen to the bird last night?
He was telling you to slow down.

He sat on his branch and looked down,
and shook his little head.
He knew something you didn't.
And he begged for you to listen.

He saw the panic in your eyes.
He saw the fear in your face.
He felt the chaos within you.
He felt the loneliness taking over.

He wanted you to listen.
To remind you.
That even the smallest voice can change everything.
