The Phoenix Poem by alex price

You caught me as i fell
Silvery pools were a cruel spell
Like moth drawn to flame
Jumped right into them
Never knew what was
Waiting at the end

Dancing in the woods
Under stars and moonlight
Your hand overshadowed mine
Silver and green align
And for first and last time
You were mine

Our castle had a crack
I lost track
Of number of enemies
You shook hands with
Behind my back

But you made all demons disappear
When you whispered in my ear
You are my forever, dear

Then why my sworn enemy was in white
When you promised me your side
You told me she was way to your dreams
Your hopes your retribution

And then came to world my greatest joy
And my life
My anchor
She hold me here when all was lost
And gone

Breeze turned to storm
And our castle crumbled once and for all
Your lips mouthed the same old lie
Without you love, I would die

Thorned thrones, cursed crowns
You drank on power
On your rage path
Setting everything on fire
vengeance devoured soul
Locked me in a tower
But in the darkest night
There was a single star
Shining brightest of all
The morningstar

He reached
As i sat on a sinking ship
And i rose from my ashes
Like a phoenix


Vengeance was gone but
Power and pride you lost
When you realise the cost
Of losing who you love the most

In the final battle
Took the blow
And vowed
Forever
I promised the same with your final breathe

Now i am sitting in the kitchen with Morningstar and anchor
Singing a song
Laughing along
Thinking about the best thing i did
When i promised you
Like promises you made
