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
