Once I flew close to the sun
But it's heat did not burn me
For I flew brilliantly
And though my wings were mad of wax
My courage and pure heart, ensured they would last
Alas my wings meet your passion, and was no match
And your love and passion melted my wings of wax
Soon I began my descent to the ground
With nothing but love, and sweet thought of you

A brilliant piece of work!! I especially like the symbolism there:

"Alas my wings meet your passion, and was no match
And your love and passion melted my wings of wax"

Keep it up!

I really liked this one..

"And though my wings were mad of wax
My courage and pure heart, ensured they would last"

Nicely done! I loved those two lines.

Wonderful work.
