othelladub's Diaryland Diary

bird

and the bird cried

in the still night

and free

a little girl said it would be free

she sat in the grass, looking out into the field

and she said it would be free

she sat and looked, with a simple sadness

and she knew that flight would come

she listened and heard the cry of eagle, the soft sweep of the dove

"this void everlasting can not break us down, can not disintegrate that which is ours. we defy you. we pass through this earth so quickly. we are forever.

it is time, the passing of the ages, which loses the battle. time never loves, never cares, never dies."

there is peace in our fire. there is love in our lack of time. there is truth in our lack of understanding. there is strength in our weakness.

we will always love one another. people fight and spit and cry, but we are humanity. we are blessed to have the opportunity to fight and disagree, but we are better than that.

human beings are more than scared creatures looking out for their own self-interest. we are better than this.

we are better than this.
