icarus
I am the icarus in your life,
I have soared too close to you,
And now I am falling,
Scorched wings and body.
I'm not upset,
I'm not ashamed of loving something I can't touch.
I have no regrets.
I am smiling.
I am laughing.
As I fall from the sky.
You painted everything in a shade of gold.
You were and still are my sun.
I find you beautiful and how you set the world on fire with your existence.
With the profound beauty that you cannot see with your own eyes.
I don't mind that I've crashed to a bitter end.
I don't mind that I've been burned to a crisp.
Your beauty filled my vision,
As I fell.
That's all that matters,
To me.

PoetryYou and I, we have different stories and that's what makes us all individually unique. This is just a continuation of mine- where I try and fix myself, relapsing along the way. I hope this gives you hope or whatever you need to survive.
