-Kind-




I believe, but in the corner of my mind
There is a shadow of uneasiness 


You promised me that you would wait.
 

I wanted to believe, but I couldn't. 
 


The warmth would always stay by me

I was a child who didn't suspect anything
I swallow my tears and bite my lip
So I can laugh that I've gotten stronger 


The messages stopped coming.

The calls never came.
The voice began to fade. 

Whenever I closed my eyes and remembered you, I felt like I wanted to cry.

But I smiled, knowing that you wanted me to be strong.


Please, tell me that the warmth of your hand isn't a lie

Call my name in a gentle voice, don't leave me alone anymore 


Was that a lie when you told me you loved me?

Were those just sweet words when you said you would wait for me?


Call my name.

Stay with me.
Where are you now? 


I've shouted out my wish and prayers

But my voice never reaches


I prayed and prayed.

I wished and wished.
I cried and cried.
But you didn't hear me.


You're too far now that someone else's voice reached you.


Now even though I cannot see you

You're always there for me
Your kindness melts into the sunshine
Happiness never ends, and it stays with me 


I don't know where you are now.

I can't see you anymore now.
I already miss your smile now.


 But my heart remembers everything.
Your smile. Your warmth. Your kindness.

Your everything. 

 

There are so many things I didn't notice and only realized when it was gone

I want to play on the bed and sleep in your arms


I never realized how much I treasured you.

I never noticed that I couldn't live without you.
I never thought that you would be gone.

I want to be with you again. 

 

When I meet with you again

Say 'I'm home', smile and pat my head
I'm still dreaming, in this little place
Waiting for the day you'll draw me close


In my dream, you're waiting for me. 


I couldn't believe, but I wanted to.

‡ 「Dear You -Feel-」 ‡

Continuation of random (short) drabble inspired by Dear You, OST for Higurashi no Naku Koro ni anime.

Hope you will enjoy the new one of -Feel-

-Feel-





I didn't tell you about the wound in my heart
And only kneeled down at the approaching pain



It was hurt.

But I would say nothing and just pray.


Two people held the same mind
You and I were one
Something that two people got by becoming one
That wasn't what we had wanted



None of us needed to tell what we were thinking.
Each of us knew what we would say to each other.

We became one just like two sides of a coin.
So close but never saw one another.

It wasn't what we wanted.


The thing that crawled on the dirtied back
Was the sin that had caused the unhealing wound
I can't reach the past days even when I chase it



I was supposed to walk away from you.
You were not belonged together with me.

No matter how far I ran to reach you, I just couldn't.


Please, under the light breeze and sun
Smile like that



As you stood under the sun, I would stand under the moonlight.
You smiled gently with those eyes reflecting love.

Love for someone else.


To protect this warm place
I'll try to change anything
Because we live to make tomorrow
We pursue happiness every day



The memories never faded away.
You had gone to somewhere else but I stayed.
I stayed to try, to change, to live for tomorrow.

For happiness.


Just the thirty-five degrees of heat from your hand
Can make me this strong
I won't shed any tears



If one day you held my hand again then I'd be strong.
Your warmth would be enough and I'd promise you.

I won't cry.


I didn't tell you about the wound in my heart
And only kneeled down at the approaching pain
But as the seasons wait for no one
Let's walk over the pain, onto tomorrow


It was still hurt now.

But I still would say nothing and just pray.

‡ 「Dear You -Cry-」 ‡

For anyone expecting an article about love after reading the title, then the answer is no.
For anyone wondering why the word '-Cry-' is doing after the sweetest opening 'Dear You', I have prepared the details below.

There is this anime titled Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (ひぐらしのなく頃に / Higurashi When They Cry). I think I watched the series around 6-7 years ago and I really recommend this to everyone; although, for your information, it's not a cheerful, cute, funny anime. Actually it's quite complex and, well, sick.

I'll leave it with the word 'sick'. You'll figure it why if you watch it.

I'm not going to review the anime or spoil anything about it here but there's this one song title I really like. Actually it's not just one song; there are four of them (plus another original mix, so there are five!).

All share the same musical notes but different lyrics and feels.
If you don't know yet, I have tendency to write when I listen to music and this (or these?) song(s) make me want to write while letting myself to disappear in the music.

Shall we start with the -Cry- version first today?
I'll post the English translation here instead of the Romaji lyrics.
It's actually just a drabble; randomly written by a random greedy author.

Hope you will enjoy it.

-Cry-




The steady rising of the scent of summer
I want to feel it next to you

Thirteen years ago.

It was summer.


Those moments that may feel like nothing are
Treasures worth more than jewels
Let this moment be enveloped in soft sunlight
And be protected for always
 

The sun was setting down as the moon appeared on the sky.
Our footsteps were left on the sand as we walked side by side.
You let your tears rolled as I gave a smile.

In my heart, I was praying that the time would stop eternally.


Even though those days
May be imprisoned in darkness
I'm believing in you
Even though it may be unforgivable


Day by day. Night by night.
Flowers bloomed. Summer breeze gone. Leaves fell. Snowflakes melted.
 
You wanted to forget but couldn't.


Please stay shining
Stay and smile here for always


I'm sorry. I'll go.

You kept saying that. You always wrote that. You never stopped thinking that.
Just shine. Just stay. Just smile.


Please don't cry
Please listen to me
Please don't be afraid, I won't do anything
I'll cry with you, for you
Please, don't be scared


It's okay.

I had forgiven you. I'd cry with you. I'd be there for you.
Please listen to me. Please don't be afraid. Please be here.


The cry of the summer
Drowns out my voice
Even a small bit is alright, please don't cry
I'll forgive you, please don't cry


So far yet I still could hear you cry.
Too dark but I still wanted you to shine.
Broken and fragile.

You're forgiven.


The cicadas say it's too late
But I still reach out to you
Please believe in me
I want to say, "You don't have to cry anymore"


I was still reaching out to you.

It was summer again today.
