Fear not friends
I smirk with intent
though the fire buns brightly
my will can not be bent

My very own demise
is within a wings reach
so slowly I extend
a lesson here, for me to teach

One by one
my feathers are aflame
and as I fall to ashes
the fire I do not blame

From the ashes
I am reborn
this is not the end of me
I have been reformed

I rise anew
as if springed from a helix
out of the ashes
I am The Phoenix.

in this you seem to say that we should not blame the things around us for our problems and should always understand the strength inside of us to rise above...

nicely done ma'am...
