Phoenix In The Wind

My dreams have died

Now I bow my head to sigh

 

Night is when I cry

Day is my rebuilding time

 

Too young to die

Too old to ask why

 

Now’s my time to fly

That’s why I have to try

 

I’m a phoenix in the wind

Flying towards the setting sun

To escape my sins

This is such a haunting poem...

Seeing the words in front of you is like half way understanding the pain - it's a form of exorcism .. you've jumped the hurdle. Great writing, Marie .. and all being well, the peace will continue, love.

nice work...

self expression is the motivator...

I think I know why you wrote it... self motivation... we must keep ourselves convinced if we want others to believe... very inspiring work.

Well done. One thing I would take issue with; you're never too old to ask why. Now, too omnipotent, perhaps, but never too old ;) Seriously though, I can see why this poem would bring you peace, and you are deserving of that peace, Ms.

A lovely poem of surrender - at least that 's what it means to me. That willingness to be led that we've talked about.
