(2013)
A stone for a head A dauntingly fragile nose Sudden convulsions To lay my head down in peace My vestigial heart begs
愛の歌 空に隠れた それなのに この忘れない 音、まだ響く
Once my beating heart Matched steel drum lines to-to-toe Teaching metronomes But now my beat has fallen Into syncopated depths
A soft fluttering A pulse that pushes beyond Beating of the heart Oh to express the joys of, A soap opera here and there
I pray for the day When my mind is clear Silence, sweet silence Schemes and impulses forgone To live without a shadow
Lofting lazily Enter murky depths of feel Quivering eyelids Two heavy from the weight of The thoughts that lead me astray
Anticipation Generic butterflies swarm Twists, knots, fluttering They find no golden nectar Only number two pencils
Flickering between The realms of light and shadow Why not close the shades? Sleep’s alluring charm welcomes Despite such early hours!
Twelve in numbered spin Once reaching double digits Feel the crisp brisk sweeps Sudden gentle remainders Subtle breath of orange array
Why does music speak Without line or threads of time We plug ourselves in Forming an echo cocoon Never wanting to come out
Distractions of youth Parade like bright spring flowers Always on the mind Entangling my weak heart To the land of mud and ice
Ask me who he is A tall tree and branches keen words drop; leaves shaken I try to collect them all But forget them by the stream
To puddle one’s words Few are willing to admit Myself least of all To fall and land upon earth Closer to Earth than before?
No words escape me The sun will rise tomorrow Or so I am told
To cover the tears Some men will drown their sorrows Some just run away Some even will board their hearths To me? A path of rom-com
