Gedichte und Gedanken

J

Is this why they call me Icarus?
You know me
You don't know my heart
It breaks every time I talk to you
Every time I hear your voice I fall
They call me Icarus
But I don't stop falling when I hit the ocean surface
My wings keep burning
I came too close to your sun
And you keep shining
Watching me burn
Without even knowing what you're witnessing?
I don't even know if you feel the same way
Are you burning too
Are you falling
Falling without ever hitting the ground
I am so far away
So far away from the sun that keeps me warm
So far away from the sun that burns my wings
Over and over and over again
And every time I come back
I feel the warm embrace of
Your laughter
I can't help it
Our laughter
Is this why they call me Icarus.
