The Phoenix Shall Rise Again

****
			       Darkened 
                              ashes litter 
                              the ground
			          Dust
**		   The rubble of who I became		   **
    But within             the dust                lies a spirit
         A spirit         that cannot be          defeated
                I summon               my courage
                             My strength
                             A fire within		
                                  Arise 
			        fair soul
                                   ***
                                     *
                 This fire cannot be extinguished
                   Limitless, I reach for the sky
               For I will rise again, and learn to fly
