Inspired from this image ππ
Someone discovered my hiding place,
where I talk about my dreams.
A smile filled her face when she saw me.
She was just a normal person,
yet her eyes shone
like stones in the river.
We talked until love
settled in our hearts.
We met where hot and cold springs flow,
where our personalities resonated.
For the first time,
my heart beat fast.
I was afraid of love,
yet I pushed on.
I could no longer ignore it.
Until I discovered
she was an elephant(Erin)
who could not be touched.
She was bigger
than my wildest dreams,
unless I wanted to be crushed.
My love was not fading,
but fear surrounded it.
So is this my destiny?
Why was I born a commoner,
and not the crown prince
from a distant kingdom?
Perhaps I was reaching
for a throne that was never mine,
desiring what my mouth
could never chew.
Hot tears flowed down my cheek.
I wanted a crown
my head could not contain.
I said I would love her
until she grew old,
yet I left her.
I said I would never make her cry,
but she cried because of me.
Maybe, in another life,
we will be together.
