Icarus

Fire above, water below
Ascending to the skies
Vainglory over fear
Rising fondness for height
I feel closer to the sun
Does ambition have an end?
On feathers of hubris
Waxed with delusions
I’m on a journey to the sun
Mortal bonds forgotten
And oblivious of my fate
How high can I fly?
Wings melt like wax
Feathers fall like leaves
I’m languished near the sun
Falling down... falling down
Into the seas of despair
Shall it save me or drown?
