雪月花 Setsugekka [Divine Beauty]

雪 Yuki [Snow]
Glittering snowflakes, reflecting
The dying light of a day,
Just like life, one
Ends and all that's left is
Coldness,
Shivering, Pain,
Warmth is gone.

Such bitterness,
Coming from something so
Beautiful.
A moment of beauty, in exchange
For an eternity gone in the
Abyss, cold
Such is the way of the snowflake,
The Bitter cold.

A blizzard comes,
Freezing my bitter heart,
With nothing left to guard me,
I humbly accept defeat.

月 Tsuki [Moon]
Looking up,
I see a disk,
Shining brightly.
A guardian that watches over
Us, me and you,
But one who forsook me.

I feel the emptiness
In my heart, an abyss
carved as large as
The moon.
Barren and desolate
Nothing is left.

Ever changing face
of her, Just like yours.
Smiling, frowning, full of raw emotions
Full of life,
But nevertheless when the cold
comes, all will be
Lost once more,
Gone.

花 Hana [Flowers]
A bud signifying life,
All comes from a seed,
If tainted, if destroyed, if came at a wrong time,
Would all be nought,
But a wasted life.

All flowers bloom,
But all of them will
Wither away, like my
Scarred heart, my love,
With the cold and pain....
Without suffering, I gave up,
Because my heart could never bloom,
Tainted.

For now, flowers will
Only be a grim reminder,
That all things will die,
A fate that awaits us
all,
A bitter sense of regret and helplessness
Touches me.

雪月花 Setsugekka [Divine Beauty]
You are here,
Beautiful, even when standing
There, not doing anything,
You radiate beauty.

Melting the cold, heartless snow,
Making it pure water,
Full of life, washing away the past
Bringing new memories and new
Life.

Putting the Loveless moon to shame,
You will never leave,
Staying by my side,
Watching me, and letting me watch
you.

Bringing life back to flowers in your hands,
Tainted and withering flowers, brought back
to life, with infinite vigor,
Growing, happily and healthily, out of
earth.

You,
Give me hope
Once more, with
Your warmth, your kindness, your beauty,
And your Eternal Love.

Ro-Nin

It is Dark....
The Ronin silently sits at his sanctuary,
Moving stealthily to the sound of
A flute.

Outside,
His enemies are closing in,
He readies his katana.
Alas! It is broken.
He looks around for another.
Nothing, nothing, nothing.

His enemy enters, and
Slays him.

Poor Ronin,
A prisoner and a puppet
of his Shoguns.
Who cannot and never understand him,
For what he is.

Eternal

Glittering snowflakes,
Against the freezing cold;
A quaint picture,
Painted in the virgin white
Of Snow.

My warm tears rolling down
My cheeks, Melting
The soft snow, both
on my face and
on the ground of
your grave.

Isn't it cruel?
That a soul as beautiful as yours
To be taken away, without a word,
Our last kiss, no, our nonexistent kiss,
Disappearing away into the realm
Of things that could've been, but
Nevermore

On your grave, there is a flower.
Is it you, reborn?
Are you here?
I hold it close to me, my heart,
And I know you feel it.

To quote a great man-
I would gladly enter hell, if
you will be there smiling at me.
But you are not there, where
Are you?

Snowflakes,
They never last.
But the ground that holds you,
Like a womb,
Is Eternal.

You may be gone, but
The memory of your smile,
And your personality is Eternal.
It shines like the sun,
Pouring the warmth,
Over my soul.

I walk out of the graveyard,
A little less afraid, a little more complete,
As I become one with you,
In spirit and in love.

Endgame

An ending world
Of Words,
A maelstrom of
emotions
Climb up to my mind,
Clinging, Screaming, Tearing.

Lying down in pain,
Time
Never stops.
Stare into the eyes,
See a clouded future.

Lost I am,
In the fog, obscuring the
Future. Many voices call,
I shake them off. My
Mother's voice, a Harpy,
Calling me back to her path.
My Father's voice,
An elder Lion,
Wanting me to become perfect.

Time ticks,
As I know,
Perfection is not mine.
The Game ends.

Last Song



Please pair these lyrics with this song.

I had once told you that I didn't know why I kept on loving you,

You just smiled back at me saying that you didn't know.

I tried to hold your hand as we looked up at the sky, seeing stars.

The first snowflakes fell down brushing against your cheek.

I thought that, you were eternal.


*Though love will hurt, though hearts may break, even when you're gone,

I'll never forget you.

Your smile, Forever Etched in my heart.

Though I will forget, though more time may pass, Though I wil grow old,

You'll never fade away.

I write this last song,

You're in my memory.*


I still recall that last time,

You stood before me, so pale and frail,

I hold you tight in me, afraid of losing you.

But one day you just vanished,

Out of sight, Missing from my life,

The winter snow still fell down even though you're gone.

Where were you? Where are you now?


*Though love will hurt, though hearts may break, even when you're gone,

I'll never forget you.

Your smile, Forever Etched in my heart.

Though I will forget, though more time may pass, Though I wil grow old,

You'll never fade away.

I write this last song,

You're in my memory.*


I cannot forget still, the last tears in your eyes....


Please know that when you were gone from my life,

I sat there all alone wanting you by me,

I harbor all the guilt that I took you just for granted,

Please stay again.


*Though love will hurt, though hearts may break, even when you're gone,

I'll never forget you.

Your smile, Forever Etched in my heart.

Though I will forget, though more time may pass, Though I wil grow old,

You'll never fade away.

I write this last song,

You're in my memory.*


*Though love will hurt, though hearts may break, even when you're gone,

I'll always remember,

Your eyes, Forever shining in my heart.

Though I will forget, though more time may pass, Though I wil grow old,

You'll still shine brighter still.

I'll hold on to you,

You're always be in me.*


I write this last song,

Wherever you may be.

Lunar

Thou ows't the moon in my life,
Infallible, shining,
Bright, like a diamond.
