Narukami no sukoshi toyomite
     (A faint clap of thunder)
sashi kumori
     (Clouded skies)
Ame mo furanu ka?
     (Perhaps rain comes)
Kimi wo todomemu
     (If so, will you stay here with me?)

Narukami no sukoshi toyomite
     (A faint clap of thunder)
furazu to mo
     (Even if rain comes not)
warewa tomaramu
     (I will stay here)
imoshi todomeba*
     (Together with you)
here's a tanka which i got from the japanese animated movie, Kotohana no Niwa (The Garden of Words). I just love the question and response written in the text.

Midnight and slurping an overcooked noodle
Cant pay attention my mind is in trouble
Thinking all the disappointments pains and sorrows
Shall I still get up from bed tomorrow?

I wish I should have laughed at your jokes harder
I wish I should have hugged you tighter
I wish  I should have hold your hand eager
I wish I should have looked in your eyes clearer
I wish I should have stayed longer
I wish I should have said I love you
I wish I should have kissed your lips gentle
and bid my sweetest farewell

Gullible
Vulnerable
I'm a little bit of all

Driving at midnight
Under the yellow streetlights
Let me hug you tight
I dont wanna end the night

Dear HP,

This is not a poem
But a question
The answer to which
I do hope you have

Why does my lover claim to love me
But still looks for every opportunity
To let me go?

Is it that she loves me so much
But doesn't think she's worthy of me

Or she doesn't love me enough
To think I'm worthy of her?

Thousand of people where there
Manipulated by the Dj on air
Alcohols and smokes sorrounds
Party troopers dancing on the ground

Eyes were blinking as the lights too
Sober but I still saw you
I stayed where I stand never took a step
then suddenly behind me you creep

I thought the night was not for us
But our connection has its compass
We held hands and ignore the speakers noise
Deaf with everything but our hearts voice
in a place of thousand theres this one.
