Mockingbird

why must you hurt me? Why cant you listen?
I guess mockingbirds only mock

you don't care of me, you care of your image with me
because the mockingbird only mocks

you say you need me, though I beg to differ
but mockingbird you don't understand, for all you know is mock 

you want to love me, and keep me forever
'tis just the flattery of a mock bird

I have life, not death for you 
poor mocked at mockingbird 

I might be dead but at least in the light,its better than a life buried six feet down
poor, unaware mockingbird

your large cushion nest made only of bones
comfortable only for mocked old bird

I hate you old bird, not innocent dove
a raven mocked over time

a black raven blind, flying through day
don't you know its not dark yet, mock flight?

Raven says don't be a prince 
he mocks the royalty

he thinks it spoils an appetite of life
bird mocks a portioned meal

why must you hurt me? Why cant you listen?
I guess mockingbirds only mock
