Birds

Location

A broken family

With harmful words 

A mind filled with caged birds

Yelling, screaming float up above 

headphones, earbuds singing love

A pure mind, a white dove

Slamming doors, broken windows 

Beneath the wings, a river flows

Cage door breaks

They fly free

But stay around to see

To see her live and learn and grow

To see love and kindness show
