Is this love reality
Or a dream?
I cannot know,
When both reality and dreams
Exist without truly existing.

Though we knew each other without overlapping our clothes, still, with this autumn wind's sound, I find myself waiting for you.

What is it about this twilight hour? Even the sound of a barely perceptible breeze pierces the heart.

Undisturbed, my garden fills with summer growth - how I wish for one who would push the deep grass aside.

When my desire
grows too fierce
I wear my bed clothes
inside out,
dark as the night's rough husk.

However wildly
this year's cherry blossoms bloom,
I'll see them
with the plum's scent
filling my heart.

A thing which fades With no outward sign- Is the flower Of the heart of man In this world!
