Arose Within The Ashes Of Mine.

I may have felt love

I may have felt sadness

I may have felt the emptiness,

The loneliness and the longing.

 

 

I am no longer the broken hearted

I am no longer a Fallen

I grew to be A Risen Heroine

The one I wished to be for so long.

 

 

My inside was on fire

Turned to ash

Yet I arose as a phoenix

I arose from my ashes;

Within the orange and red flames

I moved on.

 

 

Never felt the strength

Wander from vein to vein

Kept believing in those lies;

Those lies I've lived on for so long.

 

 

I kept giving in to you

I kept living beneath

The blanket of your beautiful lies.

This is lovely. I love how you transformed from a "Fallen Heroine" to a "Rising Heroine." Great job

[Jeremy Baker]

I like this assertiveness and vulnerability at the same time. Very well written.

The tale of a RISEN heroine. A story of a rebirth, strong and beautiful.

Its a great feeling to finally accept the past and to emerge from it, stronger than before, to simply know that you made it through the whole mess. We always find ourselves in a better light at the end of such experiences. Well penned.

The Phoenix has risen, representing a return to an experience we couldn't bring ourselves to believe before, but now, may be imbued with new purpose. Nice write!
