Phoenix

Forever I've been one with the skies

Now dressed all in black and greys

All you can find in unseeing eyes

Are feeble tears of a dying blaze

Wings broke and hearts followed suit

As fire never dies alone

Hand in hand on embers we dance

Step by step through fire and flames

Shedding tears of cure and demise

Again and again from ashes we rise

I soared above the clouds with effortless grace

Carried by ambition and driven by desire

I fell dissolved in smoke and haze

A storm arose turn sparkles into fire

Wings broke and hearts followed suit

As fire never dies alone

Hand in hand on embers we dance

Step by step through fire and flames

Shedding tears of cure and demise

Again and again from ashes we rise

In embrace of nothingness and energy I opened my eyes

My skin sealed with the ash of time and memory

Bearing the mark of forever endeavour

As blood pump pale to colour the echoes of fading requiems urge

For the highest and lowest once more

Hand in hand on embers we dance

Step by step through fire and flames

Shedding tears of cure and demise

Again and again from ashes we rise

Hand in hand we walk through the flames

Again and again and perhaps to no end

With passion so real it is hard to control

Not better nor worse

Just different
