I've been listening to too many Regina Spektor song recently that I decided to name this article after one of her song that I can relate to the most.
The feeling of having someone whom you can share your dreams with is probably the safest and most wonderful feeling I had. My belief for this one person was too much and probably became to overwhelming for him also. I had so many dreams and most of those required him in the picture. That, probably, scared the bird away.
I could not understand it at the beginning. I got very confused and disappointed because things are never going to happen as planned. The bird told me that we want the same thing but apparently, it got tired pretending so I was left all alone. It was so hard to put the pieces back. My dreams were shattered. We both wanted to fly but apparently, on opposite directions.
Time passed and wounds healed. I can only thank the bird for flying away. I thought it was the worst thing a person did to me but now I am thinking otherwise. It flew away because flying together is not going to bring us the happiness we thought we can get from each other. It did flew away to set us both free from things we perceived to be our binding similarities.
It was the bird who kept me from flying and it was I who kept him from joining his flock. Now that we have both flown, you and I can truly be free and happy because putting something caged in a fantasy will just make you lonely in the end. After all, birds are all created fly.
