Work Text:
You fall in love with a boy and it feels like fire
His name means scorching, burning
The Greeks got something right
He kisses you and you melt
You’re falling off a cliff without a tether
Because we don’t say rising in love
(Although you feel like Icarus, too close to the sun)
We say falling
No safety netting
But you’re alive
Then one day
He’s gone
But he’s still fire
Still scorching
You still
Melt
