The young king

Post by Jolyon Trevelyan »

The Young king

The young king came home
one morning in June
he ran up the hill
to see his land burn
he fell down and died
on the top of the hill
one morning in June
A mistake is simply another way of doing things

The young king can represent the youth, the young who expect life events to be smooth but when they don't achieve their dreams they blow out their candle to live, they give up easily and may never return to pursue their dreams again.

You have given this poem a lot more thought than i did when i wrote it.

But i like your interpretation of it.
