Because you are now
Looking shy and shedding tears,
The words spoken
Are tainted in blood
Surely,
The aroma of daily things seems to linger
Suddenly,
Sadness pierces the eyes
If
This sadness won’t disappear, even if I take your hand,
Forget it
As our eyelids become tired
We should
Close our eyes together,
So we might understand each other a little bit more
With our backs facing one other,
We can affirm
That we are living
Because you’re now
Biting your nails in pain,
The words you let slip
Plant intertwining roots
It’s like
Fingertips touching the tip of a needle,
Suddenly,
Loneliness pierces your eyes
If
The frost starts to settle because of the dampness,
Let it flow
As our eyelids become tired
We should
Close our eyes together,
So we might understand each other a little bit more
With our backs facing one other,
We can affirm
That we are living
If
The scent begins to sting because all has gone to ruin
Then remember
As our eyelids grow tired
We should
Close our eyes together,
So we might understand each other a little bit more
With our backs facing one other,
We can affirm
That we are living
If we
Can both close our eyes together
We might find relief without overextending ourselves
Once we can support one another
We’ll gaze into each other’s eyes
And be able to live
