ICARUS (The Greek Mythology)

Image Source: The Collector

There Icarus stood moments fore he flew
The blood of triumph flowing through his veins
He was unimpeded and ready to be free
Neither too close nor too far he was told to fly

He discorded and chose the other
He soared towards the burning sight
The wax liquified against his feathers
The feathers parted from and against his hands
The beauty of burning was sweeter when
you yourself craved the end

Icarus threw his head back laughing
Shall’nt anyone know he was never naive
He craved the light, the blitzing and
daunting power of the sun.
There is a certain pleasure in handling out
the match, when you’re covered in gasoline
with trembling hands.

Manasvi is right now an 11th class student pursuing Humanities and arts. The age might be quite young but the talent and writings showcases her true maturity that lies beneath that childlike being of hers. Her writings have been nothing less than good. Her work is capable of stirring thoughts in the minds of the people who read her work and lead them to think about the society that they live in. Exploring and reading about diverse literature is indeed her favourite way of spending the day.
