Musings of a Phoenix

Why would you ever want to stay
the same when you already know
that you're meant to change?

Why refuse to let your flames grow
when you yearn to spread your wins
and want to reach the sky?

Why stay where they don't want you
when you can just create someplace new
and live a life that's uniquely true?

Why give up hope for a better future 
when the signals of a brighter horizon
shine forth in every soul that sees you?
