Icarus

Icarus

Never Again

Never again
Will I be the means
Used to deal my love
an injury
 
Never again
Will I leaps I far
Without looking to see
Who is leaping after me
 
Never again
Will I be so selfish
To overlook
how much damage I can do
 
Never again
Will I ever
Hurt someone as
wonderful as you

Banquet

I want to have it all A full meal with all the flavors Of the single morsel You fed me
Men who go home to wives who don't care

The million incandescent bulbs that line Gibbs St from Barrett Place to Main go out just after midnight. Stragg… smokers sit or stand in the alley

Still holding (though I want to let go)

Hope is so elusive It just won’t come near Hopelessness and foolishness Grasping to things that just aren’… I can’t seem to find freedom
A prayer to my murdered muse

I have done you Oh, so wrong. I have never given you What you need Forgive my failure
Sticky pieces

There are so many things I’d like to say to you But when I see your face My mind just goes blank I’m terrified

I have been proud

I have been proud I have considered myself wise I have thought that I was Far above The failures of others

I want you

I want you Out of my head Out of my heart I want your memory To leave me be

Lost my thought

I’ve lost it again The words were just there Right on the tip Of my mind Now they’ve descended
