Phoenix


Concrete desert

And trees made of steel

The air is sterile

The walls bare


You roam,

Memory,

How it was back then

You were still young


you didn't know anything

About the way,

You only knew war,

You were just looking for a fight

And victory.


You were a king

You had the power

the weak oppressed,

And laughed at.


A long way

A whole life,

Now go around

You gave a lot.


The air is cold

see your breath,

You had to die

To live,

And learn yourself

And to forgive others.


The anger, the anger,

Has no power

Now it's quiet

Deep inside you



Today I know

finally

Who I am.
