Icarus
1/1
Icarus, you flew too close to the sun. Didn't you see the warning signs? Didn't you feel the fiery burn? Why didn't you stop when you caught fire?
You kept aiming though.
Aiming for the sun.
Aiming for your death.
Icarus, did you not think it through? You could have turned around. You flew too close to the sun though. Now you're just a pile of ash from a failed journey.
You couldn't stand to disappoint her. You flew as fast as you could. You went as far as you could. It was all too soon before you died though. In vain. For a person who never loved you. It was all just part of her great master plan. She knew you couldn't get close enough to touch the sun, yet she had you believing you could.
