The shadow

A bird has left my tree,
and in ascending, tied a shadow to its feet.
Undo the shadow, and you shall lose the bird,
the way you lose an air-balloon broken free.

The flight is but a shadow tied to your feet.
The tree is more of a flight than a bird, or the air-balloon.
They don't know it yet, filled with an air of hope and freedom.

There is a measure of two points transgressing each other.
Even as the bird flies away, so the tree dances around the shadow.
Even as the bird reaches the highest point,
its feet stay tied to the other point at the shadow end,
become numb from repetition.
