As The Phoenix Falls {A Poem}
By Jenn Lui
You say you’ve been transformed
and that you’ve found your way
but how different do we really become.
One step forward sometimes ten steps back
and we find ourselves at the beginning again
Alchemy’s many disguises.
Walls are closing in while you react
Keep burning through the noose
Just keep burning through the noose.
Given the chance to rise above
to transmute fear and pain
trapped and stifled by ego’s demands
We move in circles and in cycles
we never really stay the same
yet never stray far away from our true nature.
Keep burning through the noose
to rise again and fall once more
to rise again.
