Climb the highest mountain, punch the face of god
Be The Phoenix
A star that said
"Let's be together,"
And the rage of dying out
That took away the
Breath I was saving for love.
Tears blister in my eyes
And spill over my cheeks,
Racing to my neck.
I've never felt so ugly before.
I walk away from a score
Of chastising words that feel
Like lightning stabbing
Into my heart.
Can I walk away,
Feeling legless?
Drained of hope?
Dare I fly and be the phoenix
I swore I could be?
Or am I like the falling star?
There one minute,
Faded out the next?
7-21-11
"Let's be together,"
And the rage of dying out
That took away the
Breath I was saving for love.
Tears blister in my eyes
And spill over my cheeks,
Racing to my neck.
I've never felt so ugly before.
I walk away from a score
Of chastising words that feel
Like lightning stabbing
Into my heart.
Can I walk away,
Feeling legless?
Drained of hope?
Dare I fly and be the phoenix
I swore I could be?
Or am I like the falling star?
There one minute,
Faded out the next?
