To An Unknown Love

[Guest Xradion]

Two rebel doves

Flying high

Merely to defy

The sky:

You and I.

 

I am the phoenix

As I soar into the

Heavens above,

And am consumed

By your fire,

For you are the sun,

And in your flames,

I am reborn

 

As the seed of a

Tree. You are the

Roots as you grow

Up from me, embracing

The earth, the soil.

 

I toil and struggle

To grow up from

You, as I am the

Sturdy trunk, holding

 

Up the branches,

Leaves and seeds

Of the next

Generation.

 

But while I

May fly high,

Without you, I die.

Creation turns to frustration,

To my

Degeneration.

 

As a dove,

My wings are

Clipped by the

Unforgiving sky.

 

As the phoenix,

The dwindling

Light of the

Sun disappears,

And my wings

And my body

Freeze.

 

And what is the

Trunk of the mighty

Oak tree without its

Roots to hold it up?

 

Nothing.

 

Everything,

That’s what you mean

To me.

 

And together we

Will learn to see

What each new

Day may bring.
