I stand here

At the edge of the earth.

I have run far away from troubles

My family, friends, and issues behind me,

And you beside me.

The world I lived on

Was full of terrorists and traitors.

These people wanted to steal

The happiness inside you,

My flower.

You stand here

On the edge of the earth

Only because

I brought you here.

My flower,

You follow me to the ends of the earth,

Only because I am all you know.

Let me teach you more

So that you can grow

And have a garden of your own.

If one day,

You shall learn to walk

On your own two feet,

And those feet take you away from me,

Though I will be sad,

I will not cry.

For I know that it is for the best,

If my darling flower is being taken.

If you leave me,

I will journey once again

To the edge of the earth,

The place where I was taken

As a young flower

Like you.

We stand here

On the edge of the earth

Together.

You haven't left me yet,

My flower.

My glorious, baby flower,

I hope that you gain the knowledge

That I never could.

Go,

Into your garden

Live the life I will no longer live.

It is a beautiful sight,

Yes it is

Such a beautiful sight.

To watch your starry-eyed little flower

Walk on her own two feet.

Yet,

It seems to bring me a pain

I didn't expect.

For now I am not only watching her walk

For the first time on her own,

I am watching her walk away from me.

I stand here

At the edge of the earth.

I have run far away from troubles

My family, friends, and issues behind me,

But you are not beside me this time.

I am so proud of you,

My flower.

I hope you know that.

I will not be around for a long,

Long time.

When you relive my journey,

And it meets its end,

We will be reunited.

So I will sit in my bed

On the edge of the earth

And await the moment

My beautiful, baby flower

Will return to me.

Though I will be sad,

I will not cry,

For I know that it is for the best.
