Elyralune

A cliché, I may present:
~ a phoenix, rising from the ashes,
glorious in all it's radiant colors
with sparks of gold,
streamers of red,
with orange shimmering,
dancing in the mix.

Cliché continued, if I may:
~ she launches into the air,
the ash floating in the breeze.
Unintentionally symbolic,
the trail of black soot attached
represents forgiveness of her
previous lifetime.
She enters a new chapter;
from there, she begins anew.

Alas, I hold no more clichés - however! -
Please, do continue:
~ perhaps, this magnificent golden
inferno full of patience
and life, passion and grace,
has been burdened with self-hate.
perhaps, as she enters her new chapter,
she can be brilliant -
in all that she has become.
