Flight of the Phoenix

As I awakened from the darkness like a wee newborn babe,
   I rise from the ashes that lay crumbled before my feet.
The empty shell I once was is no longer in existence.
   The fire within me blazin' out to the tip ends of my wings.
I shall soar across the Universe for a new place to dwell.
   I breath in the peace that was given to me as I exhale the
    negativity that once was chained to my human form.
Watch me cascade with Embers of Flames as I dance across
     your evening skies.
           For I am now Flight of The Phoenix;
               my spirit will no longer break,
                   for I am beyond your time.
