The Fiery Ascent.

You are the sun
Brilliant golden tresses,
You are the sky,
A startling blue expanse in your eyes
You are eternity, my love

Relentless heart drives my journey upwards
The wind dries, the burning begins
Blinded and seared by your shining beauty
I await your open arms to save me,
Before I burst downwards into flames again.Do I ascend towards you like Icarus?
Will I descend again crashing unsuccessful
To the earth on fire, charred and beaten?
Do I strive for nothingness?
Am I alone in this love now?
