The Phoenix’s Daughter
With a tear in her eye, she told her Hearts True Love
I’ll never be far from you
She kissed her daughter’s forehead and closed her eyes for the last time
On wings so pure
She sored into the Heavens with the sunrise
She kept her promise
On the floor she met her daughter every weekend
With each step
Each song
Like a trance straight to the soul
She tells her daughter
I’ll always Love you, you are my baby, my pride and joy
On the floor reaching for her Mother
Lost to the world she closed her eyes as she danced
She could feel her Mothers Heart
Deeper into the dance she fell within her self
The song pounded the floor with the words “Just Escape”
13 minutes past midnight the bandana around her leg possessed her bodies movement
She was dancing in another world under the moon
In the faint distance the sound of waves
Crashed just beyond the edge of the floor like the ocean
The men watching her soon fade to the image of pines
An endless Dream
She was in her kingdom, her Mother’s world
A violin replaced the sound of annoying chatter
Time waited for them
A pair of angels dancing on their timeless island
Spirits lifted
Seeing her Mother in this world
She knew everything was going to be fine
Her knight in shinning armor found her upon a black beauty with green eyes
He takes her Heart upon a kiss to the soul
Her Mother’s Love approves
Proud of her Daughter
From above she brands her Daughter
With the mark of the Phoenix
The floor is coming to a close
Mother and Daughter fading from each other
She looks her Daughter with a tear in the eye
And leaves her with a final message
By the Grace of God
I was blessed with you
Got to Love you
By the Grace of God
I got to be your Mother, mentor and friend
You my sweet daughter
Were the best woman I ever knew
Purest Heart I ever Loved
My life’s proudest accomplishment
I’ll wait you for
Till one day you have a daughter of your own
Don’t be surprised
When you see me in her eyes
Hold her as I held you
And never forget
I Love you as you Love her
