Icarus Reborn 

  Poetry » Phylosophy

As the scales fall from your eyes
and you see the world though its disguise, 
waves of terrible emotion emerge 
and in a perfect storm they converge. 

 

Your heart goes wild and restless,
your mind plunges into the endless. 
your body is electric with potential
and your pain is no longer essential. 

 

An emerging new understanding,
the world's deeper representing, 
you have crawled till now, my friend,
but your weakling days are at an end.

 

As in the legend of Icarus of old
and many more spoken and untold, 
you shall strive for unimaginable heights
and perish or set the world alight.
