Remembering Icarus

Icarus, son.
How long before our eyes run dry?
We still drown
In the ocean of tears.
But we live on.
Icarus, brother,
What of the promises you made?
We see your shadow
At every turn of life.
And we keep walking.
Icarus, friend,
When will we see your smile again?
The void you left behind,
The memories.
We smile.
Icarus, love,
Where are you now?
Beyond my reach.
Forever so.
I mourn with each breath I take.

Remembering Icarus,
But you were never forgotten.

Two years. It has been two years since you left us all. And it still pains. True, we have learnt to cope with it, most of the time, but there are moments when it all breaks apart. I miss you.
