My White Cloak Part one: Place Entering day by day (1) Into a place to grow and stay Into the foundational walls of old
The end of the road A distance we all travel Darkness as moonlight Spreads over stone and flowers That litter our path ahead
愛の歌 空に隠れた それなのに この忘れない 音、まだ響く
Foggy morning sky Your veil remains untouched by The flags of Autumn How cruel of you to kidnap Such keen keepsakes of your kin
Why does music speak Without line or threads of time We plug ourselves in Forming an echo cocoon Never wanting to come out
Flickering between The realms of light and shadow Why not close the shades? Sleep’s alluring charm welcomes Despite such early hours!
Words without meaning An open mouth seems empty Trying to express Something that dances lightly Forefront of a clouded heart
Tonight I awoke to an orange hori… one that I had never greeted befor… It took me back, to the days of ce… and disregard for the ticking of c… Part two:
Distractions of youth Parade like bright spring flowers Always on the mind Entangling my weak heart To the land of mud and ice
A stone for a head A dauntingly fragile nose Sudden convulsions To lay my head down in peace My vestigial heart begs
Delicate surprise From behind blind-folded eyes That glint of glitter Sprinkle, sprinkle, floating down We reach out, we grasp, we drink
To hide in plain sight Something we all yearn for, but Our differences Do not belong in the mud For mud cannot be polished
A sudden waking From formless blinking through dre… Please, just one more year! Surprised to glance the moon’s fac… An hour before her phase
The spotlight glares down Bright, bright, sight, sight My cloak swiftly surrounds White, White, Swish, Swish, The fabric shell billows but stays
Is there something dark? Dark, dark, deep down inside me Something that keeps me Away from the center ring A divergent path indeed
