The Phoenix, Raven, and Robin

A Phoenix, Raven, and Robin

roam around the land

sharing laughs and having fun

while exchanging past bitterness

and comfort one another.

The Raven and Robin falter.

The Robin cried to the Phoenix.

The Phoenix came to the Raven

to resolve a broken tide.

For the sake of both,

the Phoenix broke the Robin’s promise

and told the Raven everything

to save the broken tide.

The Robin and the Raven

soon became one.

The Raven gave the Phoenix

his heart in the form of glass

to which the Phoenix burned it

and melted the shape away.

In spite, in anger,

two strong personalities collide.

The Phoenix and the Raven falter

leading to war.

The Robin felt betray

because of the Phoenix

told the Raven her secrets.

Yet the Phoenix did this

to bring the Raven back to the Robin

and watch them live happily.

Rather than try to resolve a broken tide,

the Robin abandon the Phoenix.

The Raven stab the Phoenix’s front

while the Robin stabs the Phoenix’s back.

In anger, in spite, the Phoenix’s flames ignite,

burning away the bridges until in ashes.

The Phoenix realized what was done

and wept all day with the loss of two.

But the Phoenix must go;

fly away and claim the skies;

fighting the darkness in her everlasting light.

Because the cried of other birds

need her guiding light.

She must continue to fulfill her duties

to save the lives of others

as a promised bestowed upon her.

The others witness her return;

ecstatic, they greeted her.

The Phoenix realized she must continue

to save the lives of others.

The Phoenix must continue

to fulfill her purpose.

Though the Phoenix mourns

for the loss of two

she realized she had just saved

twenty-five more.
