Dear Future Me,

I wish I knew what you knew, To know tomorrow as yesterday. I want to be you, After all of this, After the journey.

I know I should love my fight with the dragons to save the princess, But what if the princess was already dead And only you know the answer. So could you lend me a hint? Should I move on to the next castle? Because this dragon has blood on its jaw, And I don’t want to see if what I am fighting for is already dead. To see that all my hopes and dreams were already killed by the journey itself.
