When things go bad always remember that your best hope lies within you.


The Phoenix in you

This life that we live,
Is not the least predictable.
No matter what we manage to give ,
Broken hearts are inevitable.

A broken heart-a disease with no cure.
Yet underneath all your misery,
lies a glow of hope- sacred and pure.
To lift you up and out of your druugery.

It's the Phoenix lying within you.
Strong, righteous and passionate.
To replace your worst fears with something new.
The darkest places shall now self illuminate.

It's the Phoenix within you,
That rises everytime you're hurt,
Every time a hole in your life is left to sew,
And when someone treats you as dirt.

To remind you that you are priceless.
That no one can replace thy.
About your destiny you may be clueless,
But remember your life is yours to fly.
