Requiem [English translation]

An illusory sky, scattered with clouds, was reflected on the water's surface.

Swaying, floating, they drifted, slowly fading away.

The faint light which fell beside the window casted a shadow.

Your quiet sleeping countenance lay still, akin to the fallen ashes.

But you are the only unscattered flower, blooming still.

Hopes for tomorrow and the seeds of an eternal promise soared towards an unreachable future.

Your body, once swathed in the most vibrant of colours, slowly turned cold, pale.

The illusory sky's dazzling brilliance would never reach the depths of this earth.

The warm sun’s shadow lingered, clinging to the earth beneath.

The unscattered blossom eventually fell into a slumber, conjuring dreams of petals scattering.

The winds of farewell swept across the distant skies, the clouds hazing into mirage.

Desperately wishing my hopes for tomorrow and the seeds of an eternal promise will connect to the unknown, distant future.

The brilliant flames that engulfed your world dyed your entire world with vivid colours.

Today, a requiem echoes across the illusory sky.
