The pretty bird

There was once a pretty bird
Which had beautiful feathers,
It loved touching the skies
it loved being free

There was once an admirer of this bird
He appreciated it's magnificent
He appreciated it's beauty
He decided to lure it with love
And caged it in his heart
The bird felt suffocated
Wanting to be free
The bird broke his heart
flew away
Never to come back
