where did everything go?

here is a set of poems written for the first half of April

always, endlessly

an illustration of a true event that I saw
which inspired me to write this poem

The world is about to end
what mail do you wish to send?
Now that our bridges will bend
will your be there in the end?

go and cry all your heart out

go in silence while you shout

all your pain after this bout

just tell me your very route

so I can find you right there

I know we are unaware

no matter how close we were

or even how far we were

but now that I am right here

I will not wipe every tear

but all of me is right here

reservoir for every tear

you do not need to tell me

know that you are here with me

for all of life, I will be

with you, always, endlessly

Real-Life Blues

I do not know where to go

Paint me like Vincent Van Gogh

Bring me back in time for show

Let the colours in me flow

Tell me what you and I know

That even how hard the snow

None of us will ever go

Tell me this lie, let me know

Poetic as this may be

Like our questions and maybe

Maybe I just cannot see

I just need you close to me

Maybe all I know are lies

Focused too much on fireflies

Instead of where my heart lies

I just need you in my eyes

Stare for the night

rowing towards your fragrance
no matter how small the chance
I’ll let the stars make me dance
just to catch even a glance

every time I look at you
I see the rainbows in blue
there lies what I know is true
that all I can see is you

the wind blew us all the way
where we are so far away
Still, I close my eyes and pray
that we’ll have another day

Hotarubi no mori e

in a forest of fire flies
comes a scorching sun at rise
on the run from all those spies
to stay alive, she spoke lies
–
enters a lonely firefly
afraid of fire in the sky
yet he failed to stop and try
once he got caught by an eye
–
he learned to stay, wait, and far
she learned to stay close afar
knowing they wont win the war
their eyes stayed with the same star
–
she just wanted to hold him
and he sings the same rhythm
but he followed his heart’s scream
he held her towards his dream
