Love, — please wake up! — Are you sleeping?
[No!] Don’t leave — me here — all alone!
Dear, — leave your heart — in my keeping.
[Please.] Don’t give up — without — a fight.
There is a place — of love. — [No] weeping.
[Here is this realm] — Inside of my heart — a leaping.
All of — my thoughts — are of you — alone.
Close your eyes. — Think of me — tonight.
(Echo: Go to sleep. — Pleasant dreams. — Good night.)
Author’s note: Had trouble composing this poem earlier today; played sheet music (which I downloaded online for free years ago) on my piano to get a feel for the theme afterwards but nothing came out from my big brain and lost emotions regarding cancer patients later on tonight around 09:20PM on Thursday, 08/09/2007 as my inspiration for this latest masterpiece from my small mind. Usually when my tears fall this much someone close to heart has passed onward.
Based on an acoustic guitar version for the song entitled ‘Starless’ (‘Tsuki mo naku’, ‘Hoshi mo naku‘ or ‘No Moon, No Stars’) from ‘Rurouni Kenshin: Departure – The Original Soundtrack 2′ published on 1996.
