A Darrk Phoenix - Reborn
When the world, as we knew it changed..
When things fell apart..
I fell into my own sadness..
Leaving nothing but a melancholic tune..
Yet do not fear for my self..
For I do not feel none..
My eyes have opened to my past..
I have done things beyond an explanation..
Beyond any reason..
Even immoral, and times violent..
In my defence, I had my reasons..
I thought were just and true..
Like any naive, hot headed..
Victim of impressionable youth..
But like Icharus..
I was forced to come face to face..
With an unmerciful reckoning..
To crash and burn within seconds..
And to reflect upon the results of my hubris..
To see how and when things went wrong..
When the holy abandoned me..
The righteous casted me out..
When the darkness devoured me..
And I saught shelter in its embrace..
Now it's all a distant memory..
A chapter that has come to an end..
And now I stand..
With no God to rely upon..
No demons to fear..
The old monsters have faded back..
Into the shadows from which they emerged..
The voices in my head are now muted..
The old curses have been lifted..
The screams of my night terrors..
Have echoed into silence..
Even if my mortal soul is lost..
Something yet remains..
A piece of my self remains intact..
I , my self..
And it's enough to re - learn..
The things I have forgotten..
To un-learn the things..
That hurt me in the past..
To rise again..
Above who I was..
Who I am..
Like a dark Phoenix from the ashes..
