I left you a little white feather
I placed it right there in your way
I wrapped it in love with a message
to let you know you’ll be okay
I drew you a colourful rainbow
It followed your car for a while
I made it a beautiful rainbow
I hoped it would show me your smile
I flew down a beautiful robin
It landed right there on your ledge
I prayed he would give you the strength
to push yourself back from the edge
I try every day to remind you
that I never did go away
the feathers, the rainbows, the robins
are my way of trying to stay.
