Kokoro Sanctuary

Deep in the forest, quietly, the moonlight
shines into the sanctuary
Enclosed in a heart-shaped bottle

If someone sees it, the moon's magic
will shatter, spilling only its contents
I'll fall apart, scattered all over

Adorning my body, pretending to be free
My heart won't be given to anyone, won't be shown
Basking in the light, sparkling and swaying
The jewel that only I possess

Losing motivation, the dull limit
out of reach, unheard
Invincible, weightless me

If I can find my true self
I'll drink it all up, prepared for sorrow
Surely, I'll be saved

Scattering emotions as they come
Fragments of intellect, not a speck in sight
Impure adornments, the prison of the heart
Puppets of the subconscious

Why is it
that everyone
hides their true selves?

If I continue living
imprisoned by my heart
unaware, the moonlight
will make the magic disappear

Adorning my body, pretending to be free
My heart won't be given to anyone, won't be shown
Basking in the light, sparkling and swaying
The jewel that only I possess

Let's raise my heart
