Just a small poem I wrote waaaaay back last year and some months ago that I recently found on my hard drive... -_-;; This was before the November 2000 issue of Asuka came out...so it's kinda not correct anymore, but hey, I figured I'd post it anyway...
The Pains of April...
Hanami
Can I look at those flowers
the way normal people do
ever again?
Not until that flower returns to me.
Hanami
Obligatory parties on the grass
at Ueno Park,
petals falling all around.
Hanami
Every petal
a blade that cuts deep
into my heart.
Hanami
The sight of which
burns my eyes and heart
with tears of pain.
When will this pain end?
Not until that flower returns to me.
That tree stares at me
the way its master stares.
SAKURA
Sakura
sakura...
Return my sakura to me.
