Phoenix Rising

With blackened wings, she takes flight
Fleeing through a starless night
Scattered ashes fleck the sky
She is phoenix rising

And in her darkness, she cries
For stars burned out before their time
Never had the chance to shine
She is phoenix rising

She knows the road to hell
Of memories forced to make
A splintered heart that aches
She is phoenix rising

With blackened wings, she climbs
Battered self she leaves behind
Elusive solace still to find
And yet, she knows she’s phoenix rising
