The Phoenix Heart
Some think love is a wish that meets every need
Some feel it is a blade that leads your heart to bleed
The hearts that are blinded by love to the very core
Are the ones that can’t seem to see anything more
It’s the soul afraid of leaping
that never learns to soar,
It’s the heart whose faith the sea is keeping
That never sees the shore
It’s the heart too shy to speak
That never learns to sing
It’s the hearts whom fear looking weak
That never does anything
When the journey has been too lonely
And the world gets too cold
And you start believing love is only
For the beautiful and the bold
Remember when dead after one final clash
The phoenix rises again from under the ash
Bigger and brighter than ever before
All wounds are gone and it’ll be mighty forevermore.
