Under the cherry blossoms

UNDER THE CHERRY BLOSSOMS

Yaretzi

You promised to be with me “next time” To watch as the cherry blooms are in its prime, Together with you, gazing up the azure skies As the crimson pink leaves of cherry tree flies

“Let’s watch it again like we did last time,” You spoke with a smile so sweet, so sublime But cherry’s radiance does blooms in May, You’re gone in March, now April is on its way

Under the cherry blossoms, it’s warm yet icy It's spring, yet why is it so frosty and snowy? Still I wonder, waiting… when is the next time? Clasping onto that promise for the last time

Fragments of our moments, I miss so fondly Under the cherry blossoms, why is it so lonely? Frozen by your memory, is my withered heart Did our love ever bloom from the very start?
