I touched the Sun

I was Icarus
You were the sun.

I flew too close
You sucked me in
melting my wax wings.

as I fell to the earth
I looked at you
hopefully
expecting you to save me
but you kept on watching
mercilessly
as I plummeted to
my sudden death.

I hit the ground
and shattered
into million pieces
You kept looking from up high
shining
acting as if
I never touched the sun.
