Golden Elegance - Whispers To The Jewel

icarus

sun-kissed, i dance, a moth to your fierce light,
my wings, mere dreams of wax, whisper your name.
drawn by your blaze, i chase your molten kiss,
though whispers hiss of feathers turned to mist.

oh, sun, you set my soul ablaze, you see,
melting the night, and setting my spirit free.
but shadows lurk, your flames can scorch and sting,
yet still i yearn, on love's forbidden wing,
to touch your sky, where only we can be.

let feathers fall, let embers paint the air,
my love for you will never cease to flare.
though i may plummet, wings ablaze and torn,
love's embers in my heart will brightly burn.

through hell's embrace, where shadows twist and turn,
my love, a torch, will make the darkness yearn
for your warm gaze. even in this despair,
i'll fight my way, to bring your light, to share.

for you, my love, are lost in shadows deep,
a star unseen, where hope forgets to sleep.
but i, your icarus, will dare to fly,
though wings may melt beneath your scorching sky.

with every beat, i'll climb towards the sun,
to tear the veil and show you light has begun.
and though i fall, consumed by love's fierce fire,
my ashes sing, of love that burns ever higher.

so as your icarus, i will fly to what my heart desires,
to be with you is in this world and the next is what's required,
so if you fall into hell with those vicious snakes,
i will sacrifice myself so you can enter those pearly gates.
