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.
