Rise Again

by Douglas Goff

cold heart breaker 

sneaky dream taker

promises made with a ring

broke them all with a fling

sickness and health to keep 

your love proved so cheap

you utterly crushed me 

broken memories all I see

I bear the burden of your sin

yet like the phoenix I shall rise again 

 

The surprising Jewish origins of the phoenix
