Runaway Phoenix
November 25, 2014
I am a runaway,
running from my past.
I'm running to another day,
where my dreams may last.
I run from all i've done,
run from all I did.
I run towards the sun,
from where I always hid.
Now I'm pushed into war
where my vengence lies,
for I have a unsettled score
with the one I despise.
Last the blood will die,
and as the phoenix I will fly.
