The Princess Nagrang Poem by Kinsley Lee

The Princess Nagrang

Even if it strategically arranged between the nations,
How can one calculate love's chain?
Departed Father, teared the self-sounding
Drum, following the lover's rein.
Through foolish betrayal called the Goguryeo's invasion,
And her body and nation vanished in flare,
Not burying with lover-the poignant wishes scattered,
Even the tomb, she unable to share.
(Nov.25th,2023, Kinsley Lee)

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I wrote this poem in the basis of the sad legend in Korea. The young lovers pure love were exploited and discarded by the national interests.
