Birdcage Sorrow

[Brittany]

My love like a birdcage
Failed my baby today
My love was supposed to protect her from all
Judgement, hate, sorrow, and rage,

My protective love blinded me
From what was really there to see
My baby's regret of living
Her suffocation from my love,

Even though my iron bars surrounded her
Protected her
I failed to save her. . .from herself
My baby still died,

My love like a birdcage
Killed my baby today
Instead of making her laugh and sing
It killed my baby today.
