I walk, they walk
I am in front
They are in back
I lead
They follow me
Why?
Because I am a prince of course!
I gladly lift my legs and arms, marching
My army and servants gladly follow as well
One two
One two
Left right
Left right
I look behind to see if they follow me in a perfect line
And
synchro-, simco-
Whatever that word is
I am twelve
And a prince
What use was schooling?
I am now the richest kid!
I am a prince
A prince
I repeat to myself
Hah!
Look at me now~!
I am the only human
On this floating piece of dirt
Trees
Grass
And other stuff
BUT
I am the leader of it!
I can command any animal to do my bidding
Like these ants that follow me
The birds rest on my shoulders and arm
Just by whistling!!
Everyone is kind to me
And I am kind to them
Just like mama and papa told me
Being nice to others
Makes them nice to you
Isn’t that the main rule of being a prince?
I gladly lead my people
And whistle a tune
Left right left right
One two
One two
~*~
I am 17,
And a king now
I am a King
I am proud and honorable
I am known as the greatest king!
My kingdom has been strong
King!
The people go wild
Haaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
I stand tall and proud
And all of a sudden
Crash
Everyone scatters
‘Wait!!’
I yell
‘Do not fret!!’
‘This is of no one to be concerned of!!’
My people have left me
I stand there
Bewildered
Sad
I fall
And hide my face
But all of a sudden
I feel the presence of others
I look up
And jerk back
As did the others
‘Oh my!’
And old wrinkled prune says
A younger looking one
Hides behind him
I stare
A fierce stare
And ask
‘Who are you!?’
‘Intruders??’
‘Enemies??’
I stand tall when I ask this
Because
I am of course
A King
I puff my chest
The younger one giggles
I blush
Feeling embarrassed
Dumb,
And little
The old one says
To not fret
‘We are here to understand the animals that live on this island’
‘I am a professor’
And this here
Is my daughter
The young one smiles
I blush
‘I understand’
I say
I show them around
And tell them my story
The girl cries
I fret
The old one reassures
And we live together for several months
To me it seemed like hours
For it was too fun
Knowledgeable
Exciting
Heart beating
Then one day
The Professor
Tells me to come with them
Back home
He says I can marry his daughter
But I say to him back
But I am the king of this place!
He looks at me
Sad
And a bit frustrated
I see Her peak in
Sad
And looks as though she was about to cry
I tell them
Give me a day
Professor nods
And I leave
I stare into her eyes
And place my hand on her shoulder
I smile
A weak smile
But it was reassurance enough to her
For she smiles a weak one back too
I wander off into the woods
Leaving them behind
I talk to my people
My friends
My family
I reminisce
And think
Real hard
On whether to go
Or not to
It is morning
And I hear the packing of supplies
Voices
Yelling
And chatting
I stand up
Decided
And head towards the beach
I look back once more
And say fare well to my kingdom
Where I was a prince.
THE END
