Phoenix in the sky,
how you shine so bright,
orange, red and yellow like a sunset on the meadow.
your feathers bloom and glow, like our love that bloomed, it was slow.
your ashes sprinkle to the ground, glistening like the sand by the sea or the dirt at my feet, will you survive with out me? My Phoenix.
will you listen to my heart beat, will it revive you?
will you listen to my voice? will it heal you? are we broken apart but we'll rise from the ashes that have fallen, our love story has not ended, it cannot be so.
why I am not able to let you go nor I am able to let you get close to me again.
I love you my Phoenix, I need you to live, to breathe, I need you to be safe and thrive in the nightly air above our heads, our arms outstretched but they will never be able to touch again.
they will kill you, my phoenix.
if you step so close to me, they will hurt you, my Phoenix.
I could not bear it and would fall to ashes but I am not like my Phoenix and would surely stay dead.
Only if I could fly with you, my Phoenix instead of being caged in, I am stuck and controlled but fly for me my love, I will see you again someday. I will fly by your side and swim in the sea, we will dance through out the night, like we did so many moons before and I will call out your name, Phoenix and feel it move you through the air.
