birds have heart attacks, too

birds have heart attacks, too.

the only difference is
they fall from the sky. 

the mistakes I've made
don't make me,

but the things
the friends
and the love
I've made

do.

so when 
my heart stops beating
and I fall 
to the ground

regrets won't be written,
but promised with joy

like morning birds
migrating south
before the fall.
