(Untitled)

the sun burns in you, 

and i soar,

your own personal icarus.

angels fall,

and i am devastatingly in love with you.

wings of wax melt, 

and i fear they make a mockery of me.

i will withstand the scrutiny of heaven, 

if it means one more moment with you. 

the eyes of the angels bear down on me

and i fall

away from pearly gates, 

and into your eyes that beckon me. 

seconds, years pass,

and still i fall, 

not caught but by my own eternal hell, 

forever in your eyes,

never enough in your mind.

death do be my dole 

for i never will rest within your soul.

fiery shackles bind both my wrists and my heart.

for you’re the condemnor

and i remain the cursed.
