She Is Morning

She is the morning,
And the birds mistake her for it,
But this world
Is an indifferent parent
Without a helping heart.

    Ooooh this one touches the heart. I love the first two lines especially. And then the last 3 are a little heartbreaking.

      I agree about the last 3 lines. It catches one off guard.
