Phoenix
Here,
Standing in the glow
Memory
Turns to smoke
I feel
Alive again
All I lose
Will never end
Loosening the hold -
Release the singing bird
within my soul
To fly
Above the
Ash and
Flame
All that's left
is all I have
to gain -
Huddled here,
Within the pain
The body calls me
Back again
Scarred and burnt,
Hunched and broken
Wounds exposed,
Now burst open -
Frozen in this dream
The world is more than
what it used to seem
To fly
Above the
Ash and
Flame
All I see is
what will
still remain
Soaring free
Melt away
My body
So high above
and so below
Love
Shines through
The shadow cast
By all I fear
and know
and bear
