Behold what you abhor

A monster of your own creation

 It has broken off a soft shell

Once warmed by the wings of love

Witness the downfall of your human conception   

Driven by the hate of a kin

A fate miswritten by a loose pen

Left to roam in dark corridors of your selfish heart

Infamous labyrinth of broken promises

Phoenix

Not for anyone to understand and not for one time to descend
O weird looking bird continuously failing to ascend
Roam this earth to your hearts’ content
Mystic creature, miserable by its own demise
Again you’ll get to fly and above them all you’ll rise
Let go of your ego to burn and be reborn once again

I once saw your house burn to the ground

Amidst the ashes you rose and simply walked around
Moon and sun mark the boundaries of your mundane world
Not for one time to ascend and not for anyone to understand
On bones it was decreed and through your blood it’ll be fulfilled  
Thousand deaths for a life that has no beginning and no end
