the runaway

Captivated in a Flash

The moment I ran away, my spirits lifted up in the sky.

My embroidered skyblue veil was blown by the wind.

And the fabric of my wedding gown flowed like waves in the ocean.

I ran away from reality.

I ran away from the marriage that are suppose to happen.

In that lovely church near the magnificent blue ocean.

I could feel the sea breeze against my tearstained face.

Tell me, is it wrong to follow your heart?

****

I was like a bird that has no wings, I couldn't fly and locked in a cage.

I wasn't able to breathe like I should. Couldn't go anywhere like I wanted to.

It should end. I ran away.

As wind swayed the tips of my hair as I drive this cab, the burden seems fading..

Tell me, is it wrong to fought for my freedom?

****

I gripped the hem of my dress, got inside in an empty cab stopped in the middle of a bridge.

I smiled, "Thanks for letting me ride."

****

She's a breathakingly beautiful bride..

I almost turned off my engine.

Did she runaway too?

"Wanna come with me? To the place where will be free.."

****

It was like a ride to heaven, defying the gravity.

They reached near a high cliff, harsh waves slashing from the ocean below.

Altitude seems high, it's cold and a refreshing sight seeing the whole Kingdom.

She went out the cab, gripping the hem of her wedding dress.

He stopped the engine and made his way to her.

****

"It's beautiful." Finally I could smile. I don't mind enjoying myself with this stranger.

"I discovered this place when I traveled alone years ago." I stared at him. He looks peaceful, watching the wide blue ocean. His black hair was blown by the wind. "I ran away. Looks like you too."

***

I saw her smile from my pheripheral vision. It captivated me.

"I am."

The silence between us seems comforting until I spoke..

"I'm Daniel. Soon to be the King of Dirhamstone but I'll make it not gonna happen."

She paused for a bit but she chuckled after that.

"I'm Yzane. Soon to be the wife of Prince Jared, the soon to be King of Quentusa but I'll make it not gonna happen too."
