Once upon a time, there lived a girl as beautiful as spring itself. Her mother feared she would lose her, and so never let her stray too far.
A tower, a field, a cage, a prison.
But one day, she was free.
A boy heard her singing. She never meant to get attached.
She followed the river into darkness. She never meant to get lost.
Some say she was kidnapped…
"She's still my mother! She still raised me, still loved me!"
"What makes you think I want to leave?"
…but kidnapper or not, she still loves them.
"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair!"
"She ate only a quarter of the pomegranate, did she not? So let her stay only a quarter of the year."
All she wanted was a happily ever after. Was that too much to ask?
"Don't you love me? Don't you love your mother?"
"You live in the Underworld during winter! Do you not see how many die from your mother's grief?"
happily
he's blind and it's my fault
ever
i'm still in a cage year after year
after
immortalized lovers
