"The sun's coming out but his feeling colder"- Icarus [Yoongi] 

Chapter 1 - Sunburnt 

A boy in ripped sneakers sits by the creek with the taste of fresh copper in his mouth, surrounded by marigolds as orange as new stars.

He says inbetween smeared sobs -" i want to cry, i want to ing cry" up to the sun.

He imagines the sun saying- "so cry , i will listen." his shoulders saking and the tears straining down his rosy cheeks  - these sobs that echo to no one

He wonders if the sun could see him cry and oh ,so broken into so many pieces. He wants him to feel every ing pain his caused him.

He wants to see those features contort into tears like his - "i want to cry ,i want to see you cry so dearily like i do."

 He wonders if his kisses taste like the burning oak and the songs of lost saints that sing into the sickness in his bones. 

He wonders still if he tastes like birth and heartblood or like the bright gold light of new beginnings on a sunrise.

He wonders if his so hot that the pine forests ache at just a mere glimpse of him as he stretches his pale limbs out into the whiteness and stares at the sky, wishing for wings that could teach him to fly.

He wants to taste the honeyed heat of his tongue.
