Phoenix

The only person I love is dead.
They made my life hell.

First, they mocked me. Then, they took me for granted. Then, they murdered the only person I loved.
I am no longer what they once called me. I am now Phoenix, risen from the ashes of my haunted past, set to burn it all down.
But then, of all people, she comes back.
She and I have no real reason to talk, let alone have something deeper.
But now that I’m getting to know her, I realize something.
She understands what I’m going through better than anyone ever could.
And she may be the only thing that prevents me from destroying everything and everyone I know.

Including myself.
