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.
