Hang in there little bird.
Your words will now be heard.

We are here, and we will listen.
Don't be ashamed of the tears, just let them glisten.

You no longer have to feel alone.
We will block each and every thrown stone.

Keep your head held high.
You no longer have to lie!

We will mend that broken wing.
You will soon be able to sing.

Can you feel the wind at your back?
We will help repair your heart, patch every crack.

We have all had to hide in the light.
But you are ready, it's time to take flight.

You no longer have to stay up and stare at the moon,
Things will be better, some day soon.

We love you dear little bird.
We will be here, you have my word.


The author's comments:
There is a young girl I know, she is only thirteen years old. A friend and I were talking to her one night and she told me about how she felt that she could never rely on another, that no one cared. I got her to trust me with her problems by writing her this, no one had ever written a poem about her before.

Omg <3 you :3 I am glad you like this poem so much, and I am starting to feel like I make you too emotional from time to time D; but that should be okay :) And thank you for the use of the word faultless, I don't believe anyone has ever said something like that about my work C:

The more control you have over yourself, the less control others have over you.

This poem made me so emotional. I thought that this was absolutely the most endearing lovely poem I have read in such a long time. It was so personable and true. I know that after reading this that it is going to stick with me, in my heart, for a very long time. I am so thrilled to have read this from you. After reading the description I started to feel the same way. I feel like that much too often and think that if I got a poem like this written to me I'd never feel that way again. This poem is absolutely very special. All you wrote feels so honest and to heart. This is PERFECT. Faultless.
