Icarus

Rage
Like the burning sun
Bringing life and death
Upon rays of emotion
No doubt
Weakening your effect

Caress
Tender flowers of youth
Crimson petaled cheeks
Immersed in your glory
And your failure
Yet
Still reaching out

Burn
Like fire
Stealing the very breath of life
Fill your lungs
With this molten tragedy
Of a stainless heart

Sink
Softly into twilight
Beyond the eyes horizon
Nestle in among the stars
As the beginning of time
Is born in our blood
