Sayonara

You've build up dreams under the starry night sky until farewell comes.

Together

Two hands intertwined.

Hearts beating in one rhythm

Under the starry night sky.

Smile

A shade of pink brushing those pallid cheeks;

Walking along the honey-colored lane

With the gentle wind caressing their skin.

Laugh

Promises borne from the blue stars above;

From afar, a lone comet disappears

Together with it were silent wishes and prayers.

Fading

All of it seemed distant dreams;

Melting into the light of day

A faint voice whispering, "Sayonara."

Author's Note

Hi! I just wanted to write down something about today. This one's a bit melancholic. Any feed backs? Anyone who can relate to this one? I'd be very happy for any thoughts. :)

To be honest, being an anime nerd, I can't help but picture this in the ways many anime portray similar situations! I liked this piece; it's adorable and honest. We all dream and make dreams with others, but sometimes those dreams don't reach fulfillment because a good-bye had happened. Distance is funny, it's the one thing that can take a dream that's been carefully crafted and cause it to become unraveled. Nice work, Mal!
