Phoenix
It hides inside her,
enslaved to the bars
of a cage,
wants to be free,
won’t break the chains.
Convincing herself
she prefers the dark,
when could
fly away
faster
than an
avalanche.
Incentive desire
for things she’s
never done,
but dreads nothing more
than to travel the unknown.
She knows
she has to
change her ways,
no need to be afraid
of a penultimate fate.
Full of life and dreams,
needing to believe,
before ending up
lamenting
a life
she never
tried
to
live.
