A fairy tale doomed to tragedy

"Gloomy sky in hesitation, snowflakes or raindrops??
Muddy river in Rush, is the pursuit or escape??
Distant couple broke up, the prelude or ending??"
- Gu Cheng "early spring"

Each of us is Grew up with fairy tales.
Some fairy tales are destined to have a sad end from the beginning.
No matter how brisk, how dreamy, and how refreshing it is on the surface.

Why does it snow in the sky?
The little girl asked her grandmother, her face was innocent and puzzled.
In exchange for a moment of silence from my grandmother, it was a story from a long time ago.
If you’re good, I’ll tell you the story of Edward Scissorhands... There
was snow in the sky outside the window, and grandma’s voice became far away...

"Before he came down here, it never snowed.
And afterwards, it did.
I don't think it would be snowing now if he weren't still
up there.
Sometimes you can still catch me dancing in it. "If

there is snow, there is Edward, and if there is Edward, there is the warmth of love.

A very beautiful movie.

Crystal clear sky
glowing blue micro-taek castle
a strange man
Pale, hair disheveled
have extraordinary talent, naive soul from contamination
love brought him inspiration

but
EDWARD
a pair of scissors hand
is an unfinished robot
robot even his wife can not embrace the

fairy tale characters
and incompatible with the real world
doomed sad ending

like
another planet the little prince
silent down, left us
to pursue the immortal soul of the little mermaid
and turned it into bubble
forever lost her lover

outside world too much wind and waves
than they can afford and are willing to choose

EDWARD
I see the face goes pale
deeply sunken eyes hidden in a thick alone
start, is isolated lonely;
then, is different from ordinary people alone;
then, is not to be understood Loneliness;
and loneliness in grievances.
In the end, he was alone in the snowy night and used dexterous hands to carve the image of his lover in his heart.
Although the beautiful 17-year-old girl had become an old woman with white hair, Edward still did not give up the thoughts in his heart, just like his unchanging appearance.
Therefore, the broken ice when he was carving turned into flying snow in the sky, which came as promised every winter snowy night, telling his lover that he still missed forever.

When there is snow, there is Edward, and when there is Edward, there is the warmth of love.

The time Edward spent with his favorite girl was so short, but this short-lived love in reality lasted a long time.
He might often think of the brief hug with that girl on Christmas Eve that year. She did not fear his sharp hands, and threw him into his arms. . .

But he is destined to be lonely, because he does not belong to this world. . .

But sometimes I wonder
if he had a hand, live a normal life
he will retain the purity and innocence of heart sinking, will continue for that long-lasting lingering miss it?
This is a very contradictory feelings ...

some of the fairy tale
destined to the sad ending

and now the sun rose up from the sea.
The sun shone softly and warmly on the cold foam, so the little mermaid did not feel its death.
She saw the bright sun, and saw countless transparent, beautiful creatures flying above her.
Through them-she could see the white sails on the boat and the clouds in the sky.
Their sounds are harmonious music, but so vain and ethereal, human ears can hardly hear them, just as the eyes on the ground cannot see them.
They don't have wings, they just float in the air with their light body.
The little mermaid felt that he had acquired a shape like them, and gradually rose from the bubble.

Some fairy tales
such an outcome
silent

Why not
then on
the prince and the princess lived a happy life?

fleeting time. Fate. Reincarnation.
