Don't Be Scared

Take a risk, lie your heart on the table.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When something dies

Something grows

Like the phoenix rising

From its ashes' woes

 

Don't be scared

 

You say goodbye

Then he says hello

And lifts you off your feet

Like a fairytale long ago

 

Don't be scared

 

Don't worry little phoenix

He means you no harm

But you know the Scorpio nature

Hidden behind his great charm

 

Don't be scared

 

He promises to be gentle

That's all you can ask

Because now he has to struggle

To take off your mask

Author's Note

Time to be reborn from the ashes.

The phoenix pic there..... I have a poster of that somewhere. this is very well written, your authors note left me with a little catharsis. I liked and look forward to reading mor of your work.

Love each line, the underlying message, the chosen image... You lift us, and carry us on wings of hope and inspiration. Powerful!

I loved how you used the phoenix in relation to being "reborn" and starting over.

It's one of my favorite magical creatures.

Anyways I really enjoyed the poem.

Very well done. :]

Always,
