I am Phoenix
This life comes to it's inevitable conclusion.
I prepare for it to pass.
I burn.
My heart, broken wide open.
My finances, collapsed.
My head empties of the past.
Death is imminent.
I embrace it.
I slumber in my ashes.
Gather strength,
Courage.
The wind comes.
The ashes of old disperse.
A fledging remains.
Not blind.
Not ignorant.
Fresh,
New,
Clean.
I rebuild.
Still me,
My core, my power.
Time is meaningless,
In the void of rebirth.
My next life is founded upon,
Love
Honor
Peace
Joy.
I am made whole.
I am not a poet by any stretch of the imagination, but occasionally the muse slaps me upside the head and one spills out.
