Farewell, Icarus!

Wing upward!

A fever. A hungry desire.
It got you blind. Out of control.
When your heart claimed for fire,
The ocean swallowed your soul.
Feathers. Hopes. Regrets.
Everything was scattered.

Dive deeper!

No refuge. No defender.
Trying to scratch wave by wave.
 But, alas, you had to surrender
To that wide sapphire grave.
Exhausted. Blue. Helpless.
Behold the rock bottom!

Come Alive!

Another day. Another chance.
Finally relieving the pain.
To the winner, a recompense.
The fallen angel can fly again.
Believing. Loving. Transforming.
You found your freedom.

Farewell, Icarus!
