“Aster”
The kind of wind to suit the flowers is one that scatters them A whistle worn out is a lonely one, The froth of a daydream rises and disappears. I made sure of it all from beginning to end And now I’m becoming sentimental
The words are cut short and I’m at a loss for something meaningful I don’t feel like going outside because I won’t be able to see you Straying from the ideal, we go around and around eternity like we’re in a revolving door And at the end of it all, I settle on being alone
For every blink in this gleaming world, my heart breaks and you smile A promise made between liars, this insignificant goodbye is like a flower petal blowing in the wind A flash of light, stiffness, pain, the petals flutter down
I don’t want to look up at the sky because it’s too bright A melody passes by and I stare down at the ground because it’s too painful Stuck in a round of repeating dreams, I’ll be freed from their pull one day One heart and another always separated by time and distance, slow motion
For every blink in this gleaming world, your ephemerality darts through the moment of darkness It runs, and even though I catch the falling rain with both hands, it’s like a flower petal soaked in the rain Drip drop, it falls, nimbly, alone
Just relying on fate, I stumble through a quiet storm Although night will come, although morning will come, without fail For whom does the bell toll? If you were to forget to call for me Then I would only love you, bathed in brilliant light
For every blink in this gleaming world, my heart breaks and you smile A promise made between liars, this insignificant goodbye is like a flower petal blowing in the wind When I forget your name in the lost future, it will just be the sound of the wind one day A stir, overwriting, to be able to relinquish the memories would be like flower petals scattering A flash of light, stiffness, pain, the petals flutter down The wind blows, blows, they run away, and gently the two of us end
