the eagle and the blue bird

by Chritty - Aries

Our paths once crossed long ago
although I dont remember exactly but I do know so
We were two different creatures looking for the exact same thing
I was a little blue bird with a broken wing
hiding from love and searching for healing
you were a big strong eagle
soaring high above in the sky
lonliness and dispair had filled your heart
but you never allowed it to show
not you , you were the creature of strength
You noticed my pain and decided to fly 
down to me
you found love beyond  the pain that the little blue bird hid so well
I was weak and fragile not all like you
who stood above all the others
with beauty , grace and the strength
of a thousand horses 
I slumped down in my nest
to hide my pain and sorrow
not wanting you to see me
My soul quivered and my heart ached
but you wouldnt let me shut you out
you placed your beak on my broken wing
and healed it with one touch
one touch and I was once again strong
with a mended wing i was ready to fly again
I opened up my wings and soared through the heavens along side of you
a strapping soulful eagle look beyond the obvious
and found love in a most unlikely place on the wings of a bluebird

Reason for writing:

    I compared myself to a helpless blue bird because at the time when i wrote this poem my life was a disaster I was having some major problems...It may appear that Im talking about a boyfriend but Im not I'm talking about my best friend he was there for me when I needed strength and love..he was a strong kindered spirit who showed me how to love again :)
