Like the Phoenix

Like the mythical bird of fire We rise from the ashes Never truly defeated Even when we have lost all the will to live For even in the darkest places Humanity finds hope. We strive every day, rising from the ashes Never allowing ourselves to be extinguished Always burning brightly into the night Humanity ablaze with: A fusion of colors A fusion of minds A combination of our differences A combination of our uniqueness Burning in a glory of reds, oranges, and blues Burning in a splendor of awe.
