As seconds stretched and turned to time,
The world shifted - less sublime.
The warmth once wrapped around the day
Now appears like a dream that slipped away.
Like echoes lost in the morning light
So lovely, yet they fade away, from my sight.
Just when I thought - this tale was through
The cherry bloomed and again, life felt new.
What wonder dwells in the sight I see
This city's charm still dances free
I wonder if it feels as proud,
Watching each soft and passing cloud,
Just like me~~
