Phoenix

Away from this plane.
In a place so serene.
Unearthed angels among the sane.
Miles away from the obscene.

Filled with euphoria,
Unable to express any notion.
Like living in post Victoria ,

But cannot demand a promotion.

The thought of death,
As dark as a raven.

But the thought of rebirth around,
Always shooting heaven bound.
An irrevocable haven.

Nostalgia of the past.
Ambition & promise of the future.
It will never last.
It will remain unsutured.

Change is inevitable.
So is time.
You either reduce to rubble.
Or commit a victimless crime.

To change for the better,
Is much needed.
No need to earn a scarlet letter,
For a legend to be seeded.

To rise above the ashes, the flames.
To be a faithful helix
I learn to play the vicious games.
I am  the newborn phoenix.

Alamelu.
