At first I wondered why
They only speak to each other
It took me some time to understand
That they cannot see
Or hear any of the crowd
After observing their childlike
Behavior, I understood
They were two little children stuck
In the bodies of grown-ups
To the girl I said
You are lady
To the boy I said
You are a bird but you cannot fly
They knew about the presence of other people
They knew about the sun
And at some point right before the break of the day
They could see me
Not knowing that I come from the outside
On the seventh day
She looked up at me and said
I am lady
And the boy said
I am bird but I cannot fly
Cannot fly
Cannot fly
Cannot fly
You are a bird
