Felix: If I see a bug, I simply leave the room elegantly and require someone else do something about it
Felix: If no one fulfills my wish, I simply never go back in there
Love as Icarus did the sun
Daedalus saw the depth of his son,
Of his love.
He was kind
And so full of life, he shone
Like the sun on the darkest of days,
The only reason to hope.
The calm before the storm,
Some called it.
The call of the void, to others.
All he knew, is that Icarus goes above and beyond—
give him an inch, and he'll take it a mile.
Icarus fell.
He was falling. Plummbeting.
Tumbling, dropping, flailing-
In laughter, he soared.
And in that moment—he was flying
Amongst the gods
And between their domains.
Punished for his father's crimes,
He longed for the freedom.
Carved into his spine
Through love and devotion.
Moulded to him
To prove the care of a parent,
Yet too much he longed
To hold that which he craved like a partner,
The burning star
Of a long overdue supernova
That ignites the sky as much as his heart.
To feel the golden rays and pink hues
Kiss his skin, wrapping him in a promising warmth.
So close, yet so far.
Too much he loved,
For his fingertips danced,
Stretched and strained, reaching
For his unrequited lover.
Apollo's love
Is fiery and scolding,
Yet Icarus loved him so.
He tried and tried,
Reached and flew,
Controlled his father's gift of
Waxed feathered wings
To lead his own demise.
When the scorching wax
Melted down his back,
Over his shoulder blades and
Into the valley of his spine,
He felt Apollo's bittersweet goodbye,
His guilty apology.
The wind of Aeolus
Tried to slow his fall, to ease his pain.
A cold breeze past his ears
To deafen his father's pained
Wails to see his son
Crashing down below Into the rockey waters-
It did nothing to hide the sons joy
Of trying to get so high;
It was only when Poseidon caught his body amongst the ocean,
To soothing the blistering caresses that Apollo
Left in his wake
To praise Icarus loving him so,
For being the most devoted follower.
Love is pain, they say.
So, love as Icarus did the sun.
