![]() Helena, Chapter 2A Poem by Lucas Mercides
Love, I am still not your man.
Forgive me, I feel that I am making you wait. I promise to reach you on the journey of life. Just walk, for together we will fly. Perhaps you are the theory that defies logic. Can I place you among the greatest mysteries of humanity? I am in the dark part of the world, while you are the beacon. You are delicate as a feather. But I, like a hammer, am I destroying or building? Like a coward, I embraced the void. Will I love the world more than you, my love? I don't have the strength to kill the hungry wolf. He is filthy and wicked. The opposite of your prince. May time not hurry, I cannot lose sight of you. Take care of me with your prayers. Princess, have you been facing the burden of this world alone? I promise to be your shelter at the end of the world. Fear will know me before it knows you. The boy will still become your hero. Do you accept the painful invitation of waiting? Hold back your tears and endure a little longer. My chest will always be warm, and you may hide in my arms. It would be easier to count the stars than to find you. And for not being prepared, I cannot blame fate. I don't need to kiss you; the intertwining of hands would make me the fullest man. I still try to keep your voice in my heart. For your smile, I no longer see. I need to find you; your parts in me are breaking. This is frightening. Until this moment comes, may God protect you, princess. For our love is my greatest purpose. © 2025 Lucas Mercides |
