this is for you

for you, refusing to be a slave never bending beaten, chained jailed and it’s not like you are going to break free

this is for you, fire thief you are a warning

you being dead, or alive good, or bad it doesn’t matter as long as you keep fighting

as if we were at war

this rain shattering onto the battlefield stripping it of every hope washing away your blood

as Icarus it fascinates you you want to know where everything comes from and then wings made of wax melting

it’s you, shattering to the ground now

life gives, and deaths takes it away let her practice more

this is for you victim of your own self

you and your boots, your shoes, your reason to live

dirty, ragged, torn you chase people, without ever being able to catch them boredom to run after you deep, dark, macabre

it’s the tedium, understood only by who knows that the crown is just someone’s self sacrifice

like ashes, that slowly spiral down breaking into coffee stains into tears, rolling down your cheeks to your soft lips they welcome the salt you twitch them, grimacing

in the end, your wings will not melt not that one time and then, you’ll close your eyes you’ll hold your breath, start running towards that edge

and you’ll jump
