Rift Souls
In the dark, a figure sits beside me,
Like a pure white diamond, shines in the dusky night.
She says, "You are fated to be mine."
I look at her with turmoil in my sight.
"Oh my Bun-bun do not fear," she tilts towards me,
A hand on my hair strand, "Please Bun-bun, come, meet me soon.
I am losing my consciousness; you are my only hope.
Oh Bun-bun, help me to relive again, My Moon."
And I say, "Mom, don't worry,
I am here, just a minute, I will be out.
Though I need you first, but no, you need rest,
I'll be with Dad until you come back, like a bean sprout.
Please don't leave," and then I cry out loud.
And that's how I entered this world.
But still, I am the rift soul of my mom.
