Fly Away, Phoenix

Fly Away, Phoenix

A Poem by Zan
"

I need title suggestions!! Any help would be greatly appreciated

"
here we are now
two halves, one whole
half-silvered mirror
to the illusive soul

the stars in your eyes are swimming
we're both holding back our tears
it comforts me just knowing
that i have you near
it comforts me just knowing
that I can hold you near

One day we'll be that phoenix
rising from the ashes 
oh, we'll spread our wings and we'll fly away 
you know we'll fly away 

fire can't touch us
rain won't drown us 
we'll be dancing in the dark

fire can't touch us
rain won't drown us 
dancing beneath the stars 

One day we'll be that phoenix
rising from the ashes 
oh, we'll spread our wings and we'll fly away 
you know we'll fly away 

here we are now,
two halves, one whole
we both are reflections
of the same resilient soul.

I really enjoyed this. However, I felt it was kind of short and repetitive and kind of generic. I think if you add more description instead of repeating the same line twice it will improve your piece. My favorite part is the last paragraph. For example if you were to say something like:
we'll run through the blazing fire and come out untouched,
we'll swim in the deepest ocean and come out dry,
it may be dark, but we're still dancing.
I think that would give it a little more depth and make it not so generic. I hope this helps!
