Analysis of Old Subject
The joyful time when
I was like a love bird
I flew everywhere
First, he caged me
With his flirt
He enjoyed
Until he was ample of
His devotion and interest
After cutting my feathers
While unable to fly
He let me free
The painful time
I am now, old subject
I was like a love bird
I was like a love bird
