you were the one who gave him wings
history repeats itself
here's how i know:
now he flies too close to the sun
iracus sighs as the wax melts off his back
here's how the same mistake is made twice:
arrogance
the brashness only boyhood can offer
please do not confuse pride for confidence
one will eat you alive
and then he'll remember you
when he realizes
how far down
the waves churn
when he realizes
you're no longer there
to catch him
or save him
when he chokes under the raging sea
