Nothing is like a fire burning in the night.
It is great to burn the things of old and watch them bring new light.
Burn and destroy what is old and try to begin anew.
Once all the the old is dead I find my perception begins to skew.
Be wary for destruction is both easy and addictive.
Once you burn all you have you may forget how to live.
You may find yourself feeling sadness when the embers grow cold.
For all that's left of what you were are the ashes of what was old.
Burning is a habit of mine destruction is too.
But be wary when the ashes come for you'll never know what to do.
The oldest phoenix knows that through ashes come new birth.
But until what is old is gone you'll never know its worth.
This is the first poem I've actually written, I used to write short stories but I dont have the the time for it anymore. So feel free to rip into it, if I'm not crying and questioning my worth as a human being chances are you're not being honest enough.
