My Nightmare

A white little figure in the distance stands,
with wings spread far and wide,
like a single marshmallow on a plate,
which was ready to fall and fall.
The melodic sound from her beak,
makes the night spin and spin.

I reach my hands towards her,
telling her not to go further,
and POOF! everything is hazy.
My eyes open wide and next to me,
is my little budgie sleeps.

I sigh in happiness,
as it was just a nightmare.
My heart aches as I think back,
to how she was going to fly away.

Inside my heart, a fear resides,
the fear that she will too fly away,
like my very first budgie who I loved.
"Million, stay with me forever and ever..."
I whispered, as I slowly fell back asleep.
