Cherry Blossoms Scatter In The Darkness

SakuraBlossomTree1

This is a tale of my escape from agony
Around the time when the cherry blossoms fall
I silence my voice, and await the end
Nobody looks at me
I shut them all out, I rejected them.
The letter I couldn't write,
Blurred with the "from now on" I saw in my dreams
Only the darkness showed me kindness, pain, shut my eyes
I crouch down in the scenery around me, unable to find a color to blend into
In hopes that at least I could disappear into the dark of night...
I hung myself.
The bell signaling the curtain call sounds,
Awakens me from my fading dream
Goodbye my love, the spring breeze blew me back and forth.
When the cherry blossoms softly weep.
