A longing hidden by thin wings,
In exchange for the means of flight:
A butterfly clad in a beautiful garment.
(Someday) I still don’t know—
(The slightest) What’s right—
(Expectation) Feeling this overflowing emotion:
(In my heart)
Like a ripple merely floating upon the water’s surface,
My heart won’t come to a conclusion!
(Reflecting that form,) it faded away again and again!
Amid words spoken from this mouth
True intentions flee behind those shadows.
Quietly, they build up…
(In a place where silence resounds)
Who does this unruly power exist for?
I search for a reason
So that I can continue on, even if I know it’s meaningless…
(Will it eventually) Illuminating my determination
(Make it) Enshrined within
(All the way here?) Oh, this light spilling forth:
(Guide it on its way!)
Faced with the weight of re-traveling
These fates branching in multiples layers
(Covering my eyes only leaves it burning) — the color of a deep red flame!
My breath spilled out into a cold, white sky
To melt away with my feelings.
Amid revolving space-time,
(I send my most discrete thoughts racing!)
(Will it eventually) Illuminating my determination
(Make it) Enshrined within
(All the way here?) Oh, this light spilling forth:
(Guide it on its way!)
Ahh, that thing that takes refuge in the depths of my heart:
The warmth of a different soul—
(Accepting that clouding heart,) it shines a dark gray!
Eventually, this bud will accept those feelings,
Blowing forth in a storm of flowers!
Quietly, they build up… (Silently, for now)
Let’s touch (Come, let us go)
Those feelings (To see them off…)
Let’s deliver them (Our lonely, tear-filled pasts)
To our hearts (Kept locked away for so long)
