Manami Morii joined Hello Poetry because she needs to read more works other than her own. / / For somebody who likes to write, she does not like reading much. She can not spend her reading hours trying to "understand the author" and searching for the meaning of a literary work by re-reading words and lines that do not make sense to her. She is a really bad reader and has a limited vocabulary. / / So she needs training.
Beyond the hazy, rose-tinted window
Is the person.
Not the silhouette of a painting, a story, or a song.
Know. Then she shall be.

How long shall I deny this frailty?
A vice it has become.
Logic assessing your value,
And pride shutting my eye.
The mirror tells me I am right,
While bluntly attesting its cold.
The warmth I eternally seek is not
Beneath its mocking polished mold.
Time has passed but I, my love,
Still holds back my step.
And time stops not and lurks around
It feeds me more regrets.
But the picture captures not just the scene,
And links my unceasing stream of chain
Stretches not from fading horizon,
It hangs me lovingly on its trail.

(Quickly. Inspire me)
Or I shall opt to fly in my dreams.
Where my heart controls my flight
and stops my fall.
I loathe these monotonous days
When I am complaisant to routine.
But where am I to go?
