A Day to…

A day to love

A day to die

It is a day to bid goodbye

To a world whom you hailed hi

Not long before.

The bird flies,

Too fast to catch a sight

Eyes in tears

Beak in smile

It flies…

Soaring out of view in luck

And swooping down unexpectedly

Yet it flies

Either low or high

Until everything around it vanishes to nothingness.

No witness to its death

For it doesn’t die.

Flies on and on

On a loved day longer is its flight

Higher is its aim.

And a day without love

It never lets go by.

A day to love

A day to die

It is a day to bid goodbye

To a world you hailed hi

Not long before.
