1.Don’t go
2.These nameless days—
3.Even if their color fades
4.Please stay here somehow
5.I cling to them
6.I don’t want to name
7.This day that has no reason8.
9.I wonder why
10.Today feels like it’s
11.Diluting yesterday
12.I finally understand
13.Why the elderly
14.Prefer their flavors mild15.
16.Life passes by in an instant
17.Like shimmering heat on the horizon
18.Filling in each square of the grid
19.Is this where the punctuation should go?20.
21.I’m searching for you
22.Lost on this journey
23.Even now, I’m clinging
24.To the foundations that brought me here
25.But even in my final moments, I can’t rely on them
26.I can’t say it well
27.I want to be strong
28.I try to love that version of myself29.
30.Only you
31.Could tint each day
32.With color and warmth
33.Spring, summer, autumn, winter—
34.If only it could always be that way35.
36.From the moment we meet
37.Parting has already begun
38.Waving handkerchiefs back and forth
39.Until the day even that must end40.
41.Falling straight down
42.A life drawn in a single stroke
43.If I could come to accept
44.My shameful past—45.
46.I had been searching for myself
47.Wandering this journey
48.Even now, I clung
49.To the reasons that led me here
50.Blinded by only beautiful things
51.Like a child
52.Unable to lie—
53.I love that part of myself54.
55.Don’t go
56.These nameless days
57.Bubble up, then vanish
58.As if deepening in color
59.Oh, beloved days
60.I ended up giving
61.A name to this day without reason
