One, two days, and three, four days passed
Winter is breathing, as Fall no longer stood
Where have you been, my dear Lord?
Please return to the horizon-nearby hill foot
I am waiting for you within unfailing thought.
Birds still sing upon the ancient trees' branches
Cherry blossoms fall down in my dreams called by your name
Snowy white sky, raindrops freeze the ground
Can you find any other feelings which are as warm as my love?
If you come back, I would hold you close
Give you kisses, embrace you with misses
In the shadow, just towards your steps handle it
Dear oh dear, can't you just wait for me coming?
You said love would fade into dust
I was so foolish now that I have known
That kind of 「天長地久の愛」
Is eternal, or oblivion of time?
You told me, promises were made to break
I am not sure whether mine would here stay
Just devoted my youth and my life,
Holding the overflowing amorous illusions of your side
Unwise human beings would do anything for love
Poison of affection is the most terrible thing
Who for whom, life-by-life hatred?
Who for whom, life-by-life sadness?
You said you didn't want to be lost
So the passion, at heart it restraints
Flickering ashes beneath the down cooled love
Alike to the broken dodder long time ago
Destiny is the hallucination of grief
As destiny ends, as we will split
Notwithstanding how I thought love was everything
Which would stand still, afterwards the apocalypse
Once past met again, knowing that "everything" had soon shattered
One more time, buried in my bones and blood
In dimming vision, your silhouette got blurred
Amongst the ruins, me and me only
Despite wind storming at my heart
Holding illusions, solitude embraces me
Drop my soul wandering around the clandestine space
Space for you, for me, for completed
Happiness? Who wants to be tied?
I ache like a river dried out water
Like plants, without sun wither
Wholeness? I kept in drawer
Any memory would paint it for me?
And for you, I bring to this world
My longings seeded all over the earth-realm
Where you are, how you are, are you fine?
That is enough for my peaceful slumber
Night by night, each star lands
Wipe my tears, I pray for you tight
If ever sky falls, please just live on
Toward this corpse I am not eager on
But my Lord, my love you ignored
Why was malicious to hurt each other?
I am neither deranged nor enraged but sorry
Feelings had been beautiful before collapsing totally because of me
Scatters turned into knives, going through my veins
Let me take it, all of this sore
Keep heading to the things you love
Only from afar do I feel so yet relieved
Water flow is corroding the stones
Yet leaf-alike love, silently floats
Behind the stream, will grass green remain?
If it does, sew my love if only by chance
Do not hate, care, or cry
I love you
I'll be alright.

Note:
- 「天長地久の愛」："Tenchouchikyuu no Ai" - A love that survives through the long period of time, as beginningless and endingless like the sky and earth. It lives on until the very sky falls and earth collapses. This is a metaphor that Asian cultures which share the same Hanji or were influenced by Chinese culture from the really early millenniums use.
- Dodder: This is a kind of parasitic plant, however, it is the same name that my culture use for the connection between 2 people in love with each other. To translate, it is like "a red thread tying a couple together and that red thread was gifted by upper spirits or by Love goddess in our belief".
- Drawing was created by me
Last words, I wish you all have a nice day ahead! Thanks for visiting my post <3
