Like Icarus ...

Like Icarus,                                                  
             I flew too close to the sun.

Lured in by its heat,
Impressed by its warmth ,
By the brightness that tells its beauty .

Enticed by the heat on my cold heart ...

I thawed
I melted

Then I got warm,
And the brightness, blinding -
Harsh on my vision!

The heat around my heart,
Scorching and burning!

Now all are blisters and sore to touch,
Wounds that festers with the heat.

Like the moth,                                          
                    I got burnt!
