phoenix

Burning,  heat, suffering and pain 
 pathetic, epitome of pathetic 
lament, Hell flames, all in a chain
 silence and roars all magnetic 

 hear my sobs of weakness 
see my tears of helplessness 
feel my dispiriting meekness
no,stop, no more woefulness 

ashes and dust,ruling the world
a throne upon the dead
 colorless sounds slowly whirled
papers from books we read

 here I rise amongst death and ashes
there is weakness, but within strength
chaos have I brought with crashes
I rise refined at length

I’m confirming your worst fears about me
rip me limp from limp
you can crush me in glee
thinking I’m a wimp

continue to wreck me
demolish my dreams
but two seconds be
and I’ll rise in screams

Amongst the ashes
Like a Phoenix
