… at You

The sun is here, but I want to look at you —
just looking at you.
In the way you sit on the chair,
In the way you relax yourself there,
In the way you face the sun.
You.

The moon is here, but I want to look at you — 
just looking at you.
In the way you lay yourself down,
In the way your chest rises up and down,
In the way your eyes are closed.
You.

The stars are here, and you are not near,
but I want to look at you — just looking at you.
In the silence you treat me,
In the distance you give me,
In the pride you hold against me.
You.

And when the universe is gone, and the world is torn —
I want to look at you — just looking at you.
In the way life ignites you,
In the way love flows into you,
In the way love frees you.
You.

And if all the time is here, and you are still here,
I want to look at you — just looking at you.
Into your eyes — the way I feel the sun.
Onto your face — the way I admire the stars.
At your whole self — just the way you are.
You.

And only if you breathe me in, and take my breath in —
and I want to feel you — just feeling you.
In the way you look back at me,
In the way you feel me as my breath touches your skin,
In all the ways you allow yourself to take me in.
You.

… and just for now,
at this very moment,
I’ll take everything I see,
everything I feel… as mine…
Mine.

The sun is here, and I just want to look at you.
Only you are yours, not mine.

You once told me: don’t think too much,
and that’s when I started thinking too much.

I went into my head and didn’t know why,
why did I think about it so much?

いま何してるかな…
君も見ているかな…

So I look at the sky, and I just feel.
… and perhaps … that’s what I really do… just feel it all.

Maybe now, you don’t think too much.
But to feel? Just to feel. Will you feel?

When I look at the sky, and I think of you…
just not about you.

Then I close my eyes, and I feel you…
just feeling you.

Hello friends,

I wrote this piece last night and finished it this morning.
It was inspired by the sky I saw yesterday,
and also by a picture of the sky I came across.

I was feeling you.
Perhaps you were looking at the sky too.

Even if the grandest wonders of the universe are here… or fade away…
I just want to look at you.

I write what I feel. I feel what I feel. And I want to feel it all.

Hehehehehe. Even now, it touches me… but at the same time, I’m so ticklish here, trust me.
It’s fun to feel, as I try to put my feelings into words.

This is ‘… at You.’
For me. For you, you, and YOU — all of you.
