The Phoenix
May 1, 2015
I'm Trapped there is nowhere to run.
I'm Lost where is the sun.
Oh, Where do I go?
I'm sinking to the ground.
I don't hear a sound.
Oh, Where do I Go?
I'm falling slowly.
Why am I so lowly.
Oh, Where do I Go?
My Wings have been clipped.
My beak chipped.
Oh, Where Do I Go?
I cannot even see.
There is no light for me.
Oh, Where Do I Go?
I call out into the blackness.
I'm turning to ashes.
Oh, Where Do I Go?
I am now dirt.
But I am unhurt.
Oh, Where do I Go?
I am changing into fire.
My situation is turning dire.
Oh, Where Do I Go?
I am becoming the sun.
We are one.
Oh, I know where I shall Go!
To the sky.
There is where my wings will fly.
I shall Go.......

I think that poem is awesome! You've got some major talent! Keep at it!
I also like the theme, you said it is focused around God, which is also cool!
You have some major talent, keep at it!

This is incredible! Beautiful! I thought the Phoenix would never rise!
This Poem is about a Phoenix who feels his situation is hopeless but with the help of God he is able to become what he is meant to do and rises above his situation.
