Question

WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP THE DOVE? i dont want to just let it die.

Answer 1

Just as in a human, the best way to stop bleeding is with direct pressure. Use a clean cloth (or sterile gauze if you have it) and hold it on the wound. If possible, use another piece of cloth or strip of something to hold the other cloth in place. If the bleeding is very severe/serious, you should definitely get the bird to a vet as soon as possible.

Answer 2

"The eyes of the dove are blue." Obviously you are in love, because this comment had nothing to do with resolving your question.

If it were a green eyed dove I'd know exactly what to do!
