Dreaming Too Close To The Sun Poem by Geno Flash

Dreaming Too Close to the Sun

You ever been to the point where life's dragged you so low?
Where you are beggin to stop, but life is stuck on go?

Life no longer is fast, as you take it so slow.
Pull the curtain on down, it's time to end this show.

Just strike me down, give me the final blow.
Like fading stars at night, I've lost my glow.

Well there's a way you can rise,
yes there's a way you can fly.

Chase your dreams, and always reach for the skies.
But get too close to the sun and every dream you have dies.

The truth behind dreaming, it's a clever disguise.
If you want to start perceiving, you must know limits from lies.

So with your wax wings, fly high into your dreams.
But get too close to the sun, the water's deeper than it seems.
