Icarus

Icarus

Solitary

Staring down
Into my own
Oblivion
 
Self destruction

No better
I hurt my
only love

The catalyst

How was it possible? Why on earth Did it never happen Before? How did you change
Fit for hell; saved by grace

Does it really matter Whose fault it was What’s been done Can’t be undone Anyways

The Callous

It didn’t happen all at once The stress of impact And the heat of friction Combined Has a natural result
Untitled #1

Why won’t it go away This feeling of emptiness That you left in your wake I keep hoping I will get over you It took so little to ensnare you…

Right Thinking

Life is right judgement Wisdom divides great from small Wrongness has no life
Self loathing

A powerful master Frequently cloaked Obscured by half truths Demands masked as duty Though there is nothing lovely in…

Drawn in

Whether moth to flame Or drawn in like fly to shit You captivate me
