Meant to speak about projections and reflections.
A thousand more sunrises I have seen
Each to die
A death over waters with no land
Reborn following twilight and darkness
So am I
Like the ancient bird of fire
Rising to live again
From ash on the pyre
Upon my life, my world, was burnt
Crimes listed, blame issued
You tossed the torch
Lighting the fat of lies
But here we are again
You and I
With no others to shame
Renewed I live again
Innocent in this birth
But we both know
The seed of my offences
Those you strike out at
Lie in my heart and being
I do not apologize
I am this
This is eternal
And it reflects you too
