Rising up from the ashes like a Phoenix
My arms wide with the anticipation to feel it
To feel the light
To feel once again
I stood firmly on the ground
Feet planted and ready
To feel the light
To feel once again
My soul stirred with amber specks
Air flowed through my skin to my bones
To feel the light
To feel once again
A gentle hand reached out and touched me
Unafraid of the flames that consumed me
To feel the light
To make me feel once again
