The last sound I heard

…Was…

A mockingbird cry

…Just…

As I fell down to die

…The…

Mimic was despairing

…To…

My already broken heart

…Above…

I saw the mockingbird flapping

…Its…

Broken wing. If he can still

…Sing…

I can persevere. Get up

…Not…

Give up, and learn how to

…Fly…

If all else fails, at least I can give

…It…

A hell of a try
