Pheonix

living life
in a haze of red and orange
with no purpose but to live and die
waiting to die
i can't
i will never
every time i think it's over
i am born again out of the dust i burned myself into

Everytime we resurrect from the ashes and turmoil of our lives, we emulate the legendary phoenix. Beautiful write, Carmeron! Love, Carolyn
