A Final, Squeaking Speech by ~The-White-Mouse:iconThe-White-Mouse:



No euphony dwells with my lisp,
My ambition's will-o'-the-wisp;
A gasping grasp at tunnel-light.
Mirages beat me in the fight.
My flimsy Icarian wings
Are cobbled from deceptive things
Which teased, which slipped, which then dissolved.
My folly cannot be absolved,
And I am but a puddle splashed
From a dense fool who soared and crashed.

Found this among my old papers. I think I wrote it near the end of high school, but I could be wrong. I may have written it after my break-up. Frankly, I don't remember its context or what provoked it.

Obviously, you wrote it because you felt it.
I really like the allusion. :P
