Our Crossroad

By Jackie Almasy

----

Glittering roses stand

Grouped together in bundles of red

Afternoon sun at hand

Lightly my feet tread

Ripples spread in the infinite puddles

Remnants of the newest rain

Under umbrellas, couples cuddle

Staring at the passing train

The gentle green gaze of my eyes

Lift to the world above

Separated by lies

Together by love

I can still see your strong form

Tightly grasped hands

Yet your eyes were so warm

At a still beat, my heart stands

I cannot find the words

They tighten in my throat

Oh please let them be heard

So deeply contort

My hand extends beyond my reach

Trying to grasp yours

This is beyond my belief

My mind it floors

You're my miracle, my source of strength

Your smile makes my knees quake

There is no distance to long a length

I would not go to feel your beckoning wake

The touch of your warmth

Fingers intertwine

I feel like I am gazing into a roaring hearth

I hear you whisper, "You are mine"

A gentle caress

And tender gaze

This is your kiss

Your strong embrace

With a whisper as gentle as snow

And with a loving glow

The three words that echo true

"I love you"

This one solely goes out in dedication to the hard working team that has brought the world our newest taste of Munto. Kyoani Project and Kyoto Animation, I tip my hat to you all.

After watching the opening and ending of the anime, I can safely say I am pleased. Let us see where this leads.

Till next time,
