This Space Intentionally Left Blank

The birds are brave
They keep the bugs at bay
The bugs die slowly
At the bottom of my bed

They live one day
Then they rapidly decay
We all die slowly
But we are not dead

I chirp all day
It keeps the beasts away
My head stopped growin'
But that is not mind

Pale, as I may be
I'm darker every day
Me, my head stopped growin'
But that is not my mind

[2x]
My mind
