Icarus In ashes, the ashesIcarus by ~XiaoQiao17
our memories are buried.
you went without warning
to destroy yourself
my only clue to where
you were going
was a note with the words
"i can no longer stand being"
you built waxy wings
and attached a false name.
thinking you were safe
you took off into the sky.
you flew straight into the sun.
i could smell the burning
from way-far below
as ashes, ashes
they fell on my head
In ashes, the ashes
our memories are buried.
i'm so glad i can help.
love you.
