Like A Phoenix- Still, I Rise Poem by Mantrana Mahi Agarwal

Like A Phoenix- Still, I Rise



At twilight when everything fades to black,
Something silvery arose from the shadows of dark,
Along with it appeared infinite dynamic twinkles,
The sky was filled with clusters of diamond sprinkles,
And those who ever reach these sky diamonds, leave behind their mark.
But reaching the stars is not as easy as it seems,
There are many barriers that oppress our dreams.
But these obstacles ignite the fire of passion in you,
It's finally time to make your dreams true,
But they're many such impurities in the way of dreams
In the way, you formulate plans to see others fall,
So you may be the champion of them all.
And conflagrations of jealousy burst inside you
Anger begins to stir as vengeance and pride brew.
Schemes bubble until you realise, you've lost it all.
As your schemes had morphed into reality,
you had loosened the reins of your destiny.
Now all you're left is with a shattered dream,
And no strength at all to travel upstream.
Once again you give rise to blazes of agony.
As you see yourself piece by piece broken,
with a bowed head and eyes saddened,
The only glimmer of hope which you sought,
now fades away in a whirlwind of emotions you've caught.
With soulful cries that fill the air, your dreams begin to strengthen.
And as you're caught in between these emotional clashes,
Once again you rise as a phoenix rises from its ashes,
You too fight for your dreams and somehow raise the bars,
So that you can complete your journey to the stars.
You're now renewed with a passion of fire that always flashes.
It tells you to, fuel the way to your dreams with passion,
Grit, hope, honesty, hard work, patience and determination.
And burn all the impurities that obstruct your way,
So that one day you can soar further than a blue jay,
And can reach out, reach high and reach beyond the horizon
