Again and again
I’ll shout again and again
Even if I become a monster in this dark night
I want to leave this behind here
This secret
Devouring bit by bit
Red and blue stars
From the future to the past
Devouring in turn
Chewing it down dozens of times
Swallowing it once it melts
Learning with detachment
Once known, it spills over again
The truths of yesterday
Learning in turn
A puzzle of wisdom with dozens of spirals
Let’s go until it unravels
The loneliness I feel gazing at the stars atop the hill
Is forgotten by the time the morning glow stains my hands
This world is conveniently incomplete
That’s why I want to know
But even if I shout far, far away like a monster
It just fades away again
So surely
I’ll look again and again
At this dark night sky
Thousands of times
I want to tell you
This knowledge
Scattering with detachment
Once scattered, the next fruit emerges
Petals belong to the past
Living simply
Soil and trees tamed and yielding
Let’s bloom in whispers
The loneliness of tracing the line extending from dots and dashes
Is forgotten by the time my eyes adjust to the darkness
This world is conveniently incomplete
I want to know
So I shout far, far away like a monster
And simply fade away
But
This future is conveniently shining
That’s why I move forward
Shouting far, far, far away—light-years distant now
I become a monster once more
