Icarus

I only had
To feebly whisper
Let’s go

And you raised me straight away
Miles above the
Common ground

I dreamt of flying
Every night
Ever since I remember

Never occurred to me
All I need to do is
Just ask

My ugliest worries
Ludicrous specks of dust
On a vast velvet plane below

Smooth ocean waves
Wash away
Shreds of my common sense

I think the Sun
Winked at me
Knowingly

Some parts of me
Might not be going to
Survive this flight
