wings of fire                                                                                                      

words of flames 

i rise 

through their stares

among their glares

i rise 

so let me burn 

in this world of ice 

and with their hatred shall

i rise

for it doesn't matter

what they think or say 

cause phoenixes are known 

to rise from the flames

phoenix. there's nothing but darkness around me. i'm alone, scared. terrified. why won't someone turn on the light? dark. so, so dark. phoenix. i'm surrounded by a blinding light. i'm on top of the world. i'm strong, resilient. fierce. phoenix. my skin itches. it burns. the flames surround me. water. i need water. phoenix. i am a fighter. these flames make me stronger. i am born of fire. phoenix.
