Sanagi

the thin veil of my body
feels like it’s being touched, sticky and warm
those insensitive fingers of yours
made me shiver, but I didn’t hate it
still, whenever you came around
I’d just push you away, full of lies
all along, you thought I was a fool...

I never thought a day like this would come
but I can still feel your presence lingering here

ever since you left, my body’s turned
into the color of a cocoon, it’s drying out
in this cold winter room, I’m reborn
like a beautiful butterfly, it seems
I’m still wet, those wings
I hope no one ruins them
little by little, I’m spreading them out
I’m dreaming of flying in the sky...

if a day like that suddenly comes
where would those wings take me, I wonder

so I forget your name
so that I won’t forget you
rather than crying and remembering
I’d rather erase you completely

I wonder if that day will come someday
when the days with you will be forgiven
I wonder if that day will come someday
when those wonderful days will return...
