Icarus

Many thought me a #narcissist but I know what I am

Many don’t think much of me but I’m up #high still

I take all my regrets, wrap them in these wax #wings

Maybe I will get to witness beauty that makes the birds sing

For sure this is a new one

Trying to fly high enough so I can touch the #sun

It’s just the sun, I’m not chasing a dream

In this world where airplanes own the scene

Maybe my vision’s blurted or everyone misunderstands what I mean

This pain I experience, the need to choose a stand

So I fly, May I pass #oxygen barrier

Drift earth to oblivion, prove the Sharia

Grant me this one wish, oh Great Creator

Let me be my #own motivation and mentor
