The seven degrees of separation

My mind was speaking logic inside my head
But my heart made logic make no sense at all
Made me feel like It wasn’t all that bad
After all, no one could ever really fall

Then the cold froze me solid
I got heavy, like I was made out of lead
My heart wrote the darkest sonnet
When my blue sky turned red

Suddenly a little bird came along
Thought it was there to melt the lead
He was singing the most melancholic song
And stabbed me in the chest instead

I fell down touched the ground
Lay there unconscious for a while
Until sunrays woke my spirit in a way so profound
Creating little hints of a smile

I got up and stood real tall
Breathing air as if it was lost then found
No longer felt the need to crawl
With my feet safely on the ground

I began my journey through the maze
Eyes fixed on clarity and relief
The end of an endless race
I finally started to believe

I guess truth is what I found
Everyone does fall after all
But in the end an amazing new sound
Will make you feel less small
