The base of the night that was cut off
Putting melancholy away in the drawers
I bet I can’t sleep so well
But good night
Wandering the city at midnight as the date changed
The crows were even sleeping
You came to a stop
My heart burnt with a pain never seen before
I was just a mere nobody then
Repeating the same days everyday, I remember
All through that night, my heart was freezing yet burning black
Tomorrow, you found out
That there was a name to the shape of this faint emotion
The warmth of loneliness and the coldness of mornings
Tomorrow, you found out
That there was a name to this weak blossoming light
That will lighten the dark footstep
With a brightness like a lantern
Each trifling word is like a burn
The afterglow will rebroadcast
A struggle of cruel fast forward
What should I do with bewilderment and nonsense
Frostbites from the sparks nowhere to go
To gaze is to be hurt
To love is to become weak
But that’s okay
With each smile I can be more gentle
Yesterday, you found out
Lanterns need fuels
Listen carefully
You’ll lose it, I’ll let go of it
You don’t have to stop crying
Tomorrow, you found out
That there was a name to this rut that flickered after your struggle
That will lighten the dark footstep
With a brightness like a lantern
