I ran,
In a daze,
Until I reached the bottom
Of this descent.
But the train was already leaving,
As if marking a divide
Between this love.
Memories of far off days
And the sparkling of the sea;
That season comes around again
And I’m squinting up
At vapor trails in the sky.
That gently swaying sunflower
Still can’t say
Its goodbye,
Still feeling a twinge of pain
In the space
Of just one millimeter.
If those summer fireworks that disappeared
Can be reflected where these tears fall,
I will
Surely remember
And let you know
That I’m right here,
Waiting.
I told you I didn’t need an answer,
Making a liar
Of myself.
So I go to collapse upon the beach,
Even though I’m just giving in
To defeated thoughts of what tomorrow will bring.
The view
Beyond the horizon
Is slowly sinking.
If I could just cry right now,
I’d be a little closer
To being honest with myself…
When our fingers
Touched,
This loneliness suddenly came unraveled.
I will
Gently
Close my eyes
And let you know,
That I’m right here,
Waiting.
That gently swaying sunflower…
The way I was
That one day.
I don’t want to accept
That my bangs have grown long…
‘Cause nothing else has changed at all!
I turn back at the sound of the wind,
But you’re still
Nowhere to be found,
I will
Quietly
Make a wish,
And let you know,
That I’m right here,
Waiting.
