A Little Birdy Told Me
A little birdy told me,
You made wings from my falls,
You made claws from my strength,
You made feathers from my beauty,
You made eyes from my wisdom,
A little birdy told me,
You’re a glutton for everything but food,
You binge on what’s little left,
I hope you’re belly is full,
I hope you’re doing well,
I hope your lies are finished,
But in the end,
I know the truth,
You’ll never be done,
You’ll never be satisfied,
A little birdy told me,
You used to be a songbird,
Now you’re a raven,
Your beak brimming to the top with venom,
I wonder how much you’ve gained,
Stealing from others,
I hope one day your feathers decay,
I hope one day your outside matches your inside,
I hope your ambitions rot,
I hope your confidence flees,
I hope your you stuff yourself too full to move,
Then again,
That’s not up to me,
Because that’s where we differ,
I’d never do what you did,
A little birdy told me,
You tried to kill it once,
I wonder how it feels,
Now that people know your lies,
I wonder if it makes you angry,
I wonder if it makes you shameful,
I wonder if it makes you afraid,
I wonder if you feel at all,
A little birdy told me,
Your lies were complete,
Goodbye my little raven,
May we never meet again,
