茶

see the scatter of tea grains
in the bottom of
plain white porcelain
hold your breath and tip the water
watch the steam rising
pale specks swimming
fold your legs and lift the cup
sink into the weightlessness
of this ancient beauty

can you almost taste the history?

D-Day

when I stand in
the late-morning sun
I wonder if you're also
soaking up the sunshine
where you are

D-1

when he holds out a hand
it's unthinking, the way
you reach out for him
you were both laughing and loving
sprinting towards the light
running from the world

when you're together,
all those fleeting eternities,
everything becomes possible

tomorrow, it's your turn. happy birthday too! ah... i don't know what to say... do well inside and don't fall sick~ take care of yourself well~

D-2

tufts of light hair
fell into your eyes
swept over your years

now you're reaching up
feeling the short strands,
the bashful pride

Go well, eat well, sleep well... do everything well inside kk the 21 months will pass very quickly~

D-3

when you close your eyes

(the aftermath of a heavy rain)

your lashes rest, quiet

(the stone path is freshly wet)

a slight crease in your lids

(raindrops shimmering in the sun)

when you open your eyes
the rain will have stopped
only the scent of it remains
filtering through a canopy
of late afternoon leaves

D-1. It's tomorrow! Go in well, and come back safely~ Waiting for you, always ♡

D-4

you lean against the rail
the night air is blowing
and you're breathing in the hurt

the memories are flooding
and you're running so fast
feet pounding on the sidewalk

your jacket ***** in the wind
brushing the reasons away
taking all the words with you

D-2. I think I could cry right now.
A person like you... you shouldn't have to go through all that hurt.

D-5

when your lips move
it is music
conscious poetry
exhaling magic

D-3. trying to write every part of you in time. you are so beautiful sometimes i wonder how you exist
