Inspiration is a simple thing.
Like hope with its feathers,
It spreads its wings.
But the universe chose a cruel design.
It's kinda like Icarus:
You can't fly too low or too high.
Burned by the sun,
Drowned by the sea,
Still, we chase what sets us free.
A flicker, a spark, a breath of flame
And somehow, we try all the same.
Because even knowing how it ends,
We rise again on trembling winds.

Wow, this really stayed with me. That line about chasing what sets us free, even knowing how it ends. I felt that. It’s such a real way to describe the way we keep trying anyway. Thank you for putting it into words. 💛🌻
