Phoenix Tattoo

Your phoenix tattoo
Etched in inks, black, red and blue. 
Firebird for Firebrand. 
Risen, emancipated, 
Unshackled from broken love.

My daughter has a phoenix tattoo that fills her entire back in honor of her husband who killed himself. This poem seems to be directed directly to her. Thank you.

Hi Caren I am so sorry for your daughters loss. The symbol of the phoenix is both powerful and hopeful and I am pleased my poem resounded with you. Thank you for commenting on my poem.
