From The Ashes
Bound by the iron chains
Shackles on my arms;
Blood dripping down
Like the dew in the dawn.
Fatigued, gasping I stopped crying for help
Unheard, I realized it was worthless;
Down on my knees, naked, I weeped
Like a beaten dog on a lone road, pieced.
Head down, tears rolled through my cheeks
Felt like angel’s lips on the side;
A light gleamed in the periphery
A ray of hope? I am free!
My life is the definition of wrongful
It was an arrow aimed at me
Flying at mach speed like a falcon on a spree.
Dazed and fidgety I try to break the shackles
The crimson light turning big every second.
I closed my eyes, accepted the fate
Blood gushing out of my mouth, I gasped
I looked under and there was a gape.
Aimed at the heart, the arrow of hate.
I smirked, opened my arms and accepted the fate.
Shrieked for Death herself, she can call it a date.
Felt dizzy, felt the world revolving like I am the plane.
I fell, head first… I am going down in the drain.
Insane.
Ahhhhh, it’s bright, it’s blinding me,
I am in a carnival, a circus;
How am I now free?
Merchants, goons, performers; everywhere I can see.
Was this all a dream, wait why I am not wearing a tee?
I feel a scar on my chest, I realize it was not a dream.
From the ashes, I am reborn like a Phoenix, Seraphim.
