Fifth Stanza

This turn of the verse hasn't been easy
You've had to dance the dance of the unexpected
And even though the chorus was new and unknown
You made sure that the song continued on
You took my hand and walked me through
You taught me the steps to a painful and confusing dance
During the whole routine you helped me dance
And held me on my feet when I lost my strength.
When you found out what was to come
You never faltered in your steps as it began
You showed up, took my hand and looked into my eyes
From the very first moment the new music began
You moved with me from rehearsal to rehearsal
At times making my head rest on your shoulder while you carried me
And every time I faltered or wandered away to get lost in the darkness
It was your eyes of brilliant fire that led me through and back to you.
You were given so many chances to end the music and walk away from the dance
But that was never something you even considered or thought about
You danced to the music of the new verse
Holdng me close to you, you'd see that I'd make it through
You sang to me, led my demons a merry dance
Your voice anchored me, your steps led me with you
And when I would get lost and was so terrified
It was your voice, My Phoenix, that led me to the light.
You sang to me a new song of life and of love
And you were so good at keeping me from losing faith
You danced nimbly around the road blocks
Thrown at you by so many power-hungry mongrels
You kept ahold of my hand throughout that dance
You never once allowed either of us to fall
Our love stayed strong during this stanza
Together we made it through an unexpected song.
I love you, My Phoenix
You brought me through the fire
Your eyes helped me find my way back
You were my light in the darkness
Your hands anchored me when I floated away
You never even considered letting me go
Your voice gave me a direction
And I made it back to your arms.
Here's hoping the song gets smoother
And no new cacophonies are thrown
I love you, My Phoenix, and I always will
You reminded me that we are stronger together
We have a connection that many write about
And again we've proven how deep we go
We'll always come out on top, my roaring fire
And be dancing together long after the song has ended.
