Phoenix Rise

It’s okay to fall. Just be sure to get back up.

stormy winter
arctic cold
this season of your life
numbs the senses
drains your strength
cuts deeper than a knife

the Phoenix shivers
the Phoenix cries

you rage and weep
you’re beaten down
yet fight for all you’re worth
life hits back hard
it cracks your skull
drives you into the earth

the Phoenix shivers
the Phoenix cries
the Phoenix whithers
the Phoenix dies

your spirit will not
be held down
you strive beyond the pain
magic defines
your very spirit
that the world cannot contain

the Phoenix shivers
the Phoenix cries
the Phoenix whithers
the Phoenix dies
reborn from ash
let the Phoenix rise
