Wreathed in a halo of flame A lone figure is trapped The walls are scarred black They crumble brick by brick Screams echoed ever back As ropes tear tender flesh Red smears with ash and rubble A painting of death macabre
Blinding rays of brilliant light Cleanse the walls of sins As the Phoenix Knight arrives Hoping he isn't too late to save her His sword swings so sure now Again and again around her As the chains of her imprisonment Fall away from her as the fire is drained away His power over fire tying to save his love
A single sound of movement is heard As she stands and the Phoenix can only watch Her wings are furled, the once beautiful white Stained red with blood, grey ash, and charred black by fire The dress hanging from her emaciated frame Showing wounds unhealed and allowed to fester Her eyes dull, no life light them any longer And the Phoenix realizes with fear what he hadn't before
His beautiful angel hadn't just fallen to death She'd left this world an eon ago His love is beyond his reach now The Ferryman had come and gone leaving just her body behind Silent tears fell as the Phoenix closed his eyes He opened them again as he felt Death enter the room The Phoenix removed his sword from it's sheath and As the fire returned he joined his love On the boat to the other side of the river
