Moonlight Refectory




-----------******------------
Your fingertip, bright and silver, being touching
And swaying, will not release?
Soup holding in right hand while star spoon grasped on left
Inert and mild cheek, dyed with blush

Discrete affection and the body
Still longing for another meeting
Alone viewing the shifts of seasons
Is waiting longly well

Your night is ending
To welcome a new morning
Until the day when meeting again
With the person sitting here

Your fingertip, bright and silver, being touching
And withereding, will not release?

Moon still shinning brightly
Light reflection moving in spoon
Alone at the cool night
Has a lonesome smile

Dancing with Tomorrow at the next seat
And spinning in waltz to the tempo
Shifting reasons with tonight
Peel and wither

A pair of white hands of you
Will disappear if being holded in hand and shaped
Gone to be engraved
