loneliness is also emanating
a residual fragrance
so this is how arousal
is
i've once forgotten
this kind of fantasy
that so exceeds my imagination
* wish i didn't have
to grow up
entirely relying on
instincts to find a mate
dazed, i had a crush
on you
just regard it as the rising tide under the wind and rain
if it was real, too
good
if it was a misperception,
also good
not wanting to prove
whether the adoration existed or not
not having the strength
perhaps possessing the intention
like a puzzle
like a play
who can give a better performance than me?
** from the tip of my
eyebrow i can feel it
from the corner of
my eye i can't see it
as if this is already
the most direct nakedness
not having the strength
but possessing the intention
coming in the dark
going in the light
who can say that these are the feelings of love? *
