Deceived by her blithe smile
Deeming that she was fine
Blinded by own happiness
Anguished by selfishness
Astounded when she reluctantly speaks...
Please hear my plea
I tried to be happy
but my heart wants to flee
so let me be free
Give me back my wings
to go beyond the sky
Taciturnly, I open the cage
Allowing her to reach the edge
Though my heart will not stop beating
I let her go freely
Leaving my love of her to bleed and weep!
