Phoenix Nest

Today i woke up

Earlier this time

It was still night outside

Not a move to chase

Through the endless dark

Not a sound to follow

Through the lifeless matter

But there was a bright light

Outlining the closed door of my room

Almost stifling me with the dense air

But there was a jarred noise

Forcing the blocked entry on my room

Almost burning me with the sudden heat

The water mirror in my eyes

Dare to defy the opposite element

Reflecting the rebel fire

Twisting in front of me

But then i cover my face

Cowering before the flames

Kneeling towards it’s power

I draw back to catch my breath

And press hard the left side of my chest

To ensure that my heart is still beating

And then i haste into the flux barrier

Dodging the ardent fingers of the flames

That seal shut the way behind me

The debris and glasses on the floor

Cut and prick me as i walk barefoot

I tried to scream hoping to hear a survivor

But my voice was smothered by the deafning jangles

Of the explosions collapsing the building

The roof was painted black

By the clouds of smoke

The wooden objects were burned to ash

Everybody were very quiet to be alive

Dead bodies scattered in the floor

Burned corpses still lying down on the beds

Cremated cadavers trapped into the flames

Feeling dizzy for breathing in the coat of smoke

I crawl down in the corridor of flames

Willing to escape

But the walls are closing in

Engulfing me in it’s flames

Close to the exit

I could barely stand on my feet

And as i opened the door

A burst of boiling air throws me out violently

I fell uncounscious a few meters ahead

As the whole building vanish into the flames
