Phoenix Un-risen

Tears, they fall like ashes 

Of a Phoenix never born 

Solemnly alone 

Tragedy of a heart scorned 

 

Fear is blinding 

The silence deafening 

Torment is destiny 

Illusion never lessening 

 

Darkness is becoming 

Beautiful and home 

Embrace the nothing 

Down to the bone 

 

My soul withers 

Longing for Love 

Banished to eternity

Watching others rise above
