Lamp Shade


When she died, you were not there.
When I cried, you were not there.


In my time of need, I was alone.
In the depths of despair, I was walking blindly in the dark.


No shoulder to lean on.
No healing for my heart.


I can forgive you. I have forgiven you.
But you will never know how much I needed you.

Lift

A cloudy but cool afternoon on the bay of Tokyo at the Bayside Marina in Kanazawa Ward of Yokohama.

Was thinking a lot about how to spend the time. Wanted to go inside the outlet mall, but knew I could not afford to buy anything even If I found something that I wanted.

Lift me up, don't let me fall.
I rely on you more than you know.
Faking strength and independence.
A weakling at heart and easily hurt.

Gone


I am sorry I ignored your pleas.
I am sorry I left you alone.
I am sorry I turned your life upside down.
I am sorry I wreaked havoc with your sanity.
I am sorry I was weak.
I am sorry I was cold.
I am sorry I crushed your dreams.
I am sorry I was selfish.
I am sorry I was a man-child.
I am sorry you died alone.
I am sorry you are no more.
I miss you.
