Betrayal

by R.B. - Scorpio

An old pigeon landed on my balcony today.
He wanted to die...
I let him stay for a while.

He crashed into the window
searching for a perfect rest
I guessed...

I jumped in fear
to send his illness away.
he wouldn't fly away.
I was his friend.

He did fly away
And i came back inside
realized what i have done.

The pigeon was I,
and I was someone else.
where there was a meaning
I killed myself.

Reason for writing:

    Well,I felt  the same thing happened to me.Noone stood by me when I needed him.I did the same thing to the pigeon.First impulse,fear,maybe prejudice.The thing is I felt connected to him,and I betrayed him.
