On the wings of Icarus

I fly

I am risen up

by your touch

and your lingering taste

and your breath

I soar in your eyes

and swoop in your hair

I dive at your absence

and plummet at your despair

Then I glide

as you smile

And on Icarus wings

I fly

On a word or a look or a touch, your emotions can be stirred to extremes. It can tear you apart and then glue you back together stronger than ever. Love is amazing and terrible, and even when it's terrible it can also be amazing.
