Icarus



Icarus


I
Beheld
A goddess;
An impassioned
Starlit dreamer with
Wonder in her smile
And doe-eyes shining sadly
As she stood upon trembling legs,
Heaving the world upon her shoulders.
I longed to help carry her weight
But she was the burning sun,
And drawing swiftly near,
I courted my doom
On failed wings, with
Nowhere to
Go but
Down.
