The burried lover- Father

The little bird had flown
Away from the nest
The mother bird knew
That it was for his best

We deffinitely felt sad
But we knew the reality however
That we can't save him
From the wild for forever

We can't give him food
For his whole life
He has to learn to save himself
From the hunters knife

It was his first time
To fly in the open alone
He was afraid indeed
As care was all he had known

But now he will grow
As he will be the prey
And the predator won't think
Before dragging him to his plate

Now he will become strong
When he'll fight for his food
He has to learn to live
A life which isn't smooth

I think its accurate
When you say that
"You grow when you're vulnerable
But you refuse to sit back"

Before he had flown out
His life was easy
But now it had become tough
Enough to make him dizzy

He unlocked the potential
That he never knew
This potential lies in everyone
Even me and you

My child I want to be there
But I am sorry to say bye
If i want you to grow
I'll have to let you fly

I will be there
To catch you if you fall
But I will catch you only
If you can't fly at all

You have to leave the nest
And fly to face your fear
You have to choose wisely
Who'll be your enemy and who'll be your dear

You've only smiled
Now you must learn to cry
Learn how to stand up
So that, you can again fly
