Red Phoenix – Michelle Lu Bird of fire, Burning bright, Burning passion of new life. Be my sun, Be my light, Be my new shining knight. Soar to the sky, Higher, higher, For what awaits you Is yours to seek. Your desires, Your dreams, Yearn to be reached. Be filled with joy, Be free! Forget your worries, Forget your pain. From dust and ashes, Rise in flames, And fill the earth with your warmth. Live life to your fullest,Don’t let your efforts be for naught. Take me with you, Lift my burdens, Lead my view. For once I knew, I envy you, For I could not make it true. But for you, It is different. You rose from the ground, The lowest of the low, Yet you shined through everyone, Spared the weak, And took that peak! Both renowned and revered are you, The great red Phoenix!
