The Phoenix Rises

Let me feel the sea

Drowning me in icy cold

Kill me, set me free.

Let me feel the air

Breathing life into my bones

Resurrecting me.

Let me feel the earth

As it crumbles beneath me

A sweet destruction.

Let me be the fire

Wield the heat that consumed me

Watch me burn it down
