Bluebird

The bluebird strayed
In the Indian sky
Its wings high 
We hit 
Our head
Wish for dreams 
A little bit
Of sleep 
We are not 
From this place
We are stuck 
In the red room
Praying for a way out 
A place 
Free from nightmares 
We want to sing and dance 
Wallow in the water
All we can smell
Is fear 
And powder 
Tomorrow will be different 
She whispers 
For once 
I believe her.

  1. The wonderful thing about mornings is you get to start a brand new day. I believe Alice, too. She is wise.
