Once again I find myself closing the door on my past,
And picking up the pieces to start again.
It was like a demolition blast,
Blowing up my heart and brain.
All the pieces rained down like hail,
Making me ask, "Did I fail?"
But as the Phoenix rises from the ashes
I will continue, forgetting the flashes.
I feel as though I am the only outcast;
As if my life has been flushed down the drain,
As once again I find myself closing the door on my past,
And picking up the pieces to start again.
