Literature Text

Stick your hand in fire,
Play with the burn,
Focus your mind on the desire,
Away from the hurt.
Stick your body in the blaze,
Let it roast you lovingly,
And as the day darkens,
The night will reverse,
You'll float away,
Away from the Earth,
Toward the sky,
Toward rebirth.
Arise from the flames
Great phoenix,
Let what kills you
ensure growth.
Arise, arise from the ash,
And claim the life that you can redo,
Oh, great phoenix,
Arise from your deathbed
Into the day.
Pain and rebirth can come hand in hand. Changing can be painful, even if only emotionally.
