Icarus

Into the heavens rise towards the sun
Heavens calling
Away from desires filling with glee
Gossamer wings
Charging emotions make waves like the oceans
And crash on your shores, mortal wounds pour from you
Faulter in cautions and heed not the warnings
Into the skies soar, upward for the moment
Soaring weightless distant and blue
Gliding through
Nothing to follow, no holds or restraints
Drifting true
Feathered unruffled, sad twice removed
Perilous and new
Sun on my shoulders, wings spread beneath
Carefree flings
Though winged and immortal
Each upward draft electrifies
No measure of freedom
Or light in my eyes, circling the sky
