The Poem That Was Canceled

【Because You Were There】 A blue bird with broken wings Did it ever spread its wings and soar even once in the free, vast sky? That day, the sky and sea we saw with you were endless The sun shining overhead was blindingly bright Afraid of falling, afraid of being blown away We rode the wind powerfully, circling ten, a hundred times When did it start... Inside a cage locked with layers of chains Entangled by countless shackles and fetters In a corner of the room where even light couldn't reach Giving up on the sky, the sea, the sun, everything... Without picking up the feathers scattered before me I don't even try to look at you spreading your wings You gather the feathers scattered on the floor Carefully and gently, you pluck each feather and place it in my hand To soar through the sky together, to see the sun of that day "I'll wait, no matter how many years it takes." Softly chirping, you nestled beside the cage Huh? Glancing sideways, your figure wasn't beside the cage I closed my eyes, strangely convinced, thinking "Ah..." A 'clank' sound comes from somewhere I see your muddy, wounded feet With your emaciated body and trembling wings, one by one The chains you unlock fall to the floor, echoing a heavy bass My shackles and fetters also disappear, one by one You smiled, looking at me with sparkling eyes At the base of my skeletal wings New, silvery wings were born with a flap (Thank you. When I wake up next time... okay!)
