--The Sanctuary of Akari Sakata--
Opening Words // "Rise with the Mourning" (4.14.2005)
Even death cannot bury the simplest grudge
We who live are incapable of moving forth . . . even in eternal remembrance we are not embraced by the ones who have always opened their arms to us. Remember me . . . before I drown . . . Remember me . . . before I forget.

“I believed if time passes, everything turns into beauty. If the rain stops, tears clean the scars of memory away. Everything starts wearing fresh colors. Every sound begins playing a heart-full melody. Jealousy embellishes a page of epic. Desire is embraced in a dream.
“But my mind is still in chaos, and…………………….” X-Japan “Say Anything”

Late cicadas—
how much longing in
their song.

Author’s Note: Whatever I have going on in my mind, I tend to flush out those thoughts by putting words to them. Right now, I’m exploring a handful of different ideas because like a caterpillar resting inside a cocoon, I am on the verge of my own personal metamorphosis.xxClosing Thoughtsxx
Enjoy.

Just A Thought: “There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart’s desire. The other is to gain it.” —George Bernard Shaw, British playwright and critic (1856-1950)
"Hajime ni kesshite shinjimasen. I don't know how to. Tsui ni, I still don't know how to believe. Perhaps because I do not know what to believe. I realize now that the only facts are there no facts, yet even then, to accept this faith mada yooi ga dekite imasen. Believing, itsu hajimarimasu ka? I'm not entirely certain, perhaps because whatever I say without experience, nan demo ii desu. My only nozomi is that whatever lies beyond this kowareta no karada will be no more colder than the niwaka-ame I have found in the deepest pools of my being. Kami o naka ni wasuremashita. Someday, I might let him back in . . . but I can't believe even that."
