It was near a railroad crossing,
he promised he’d make her happy.
Thank you for everything.
from that of springtime.
This is for your son.
dragged here reluctantly,
As a man, I didn’t see
The leaves will be beautiful then.
He studied science
despite the hard times,
has a different beauty
Every time you took a breath,
ever since you were a young girl,
There was a big leather suitcase.
and certificates of achievement.
Seeing the blossoms
You had a new brooch too.
Is it wrong to be attached
Taeko, that diamond ring
A splinter in her hand?
I deal in iron and steel.
It’s a steady rain,
if the groom is over 40,
not to wet her painted lips.
She loves his photographs.
and took them in without thinking.
Those festive patterns
With her mouth open like an O.
He’s been saving up.
Death certificates.
I’m heartbroken.
and seasons change,
Relationships are more difficult
The rain stopped.
so we could admire the foliage.
for a marriage.
Her clothes and everything are gone.
Appearances suffer
of the House.
the flame is out over there?
The older, softer ones don’t squeak.
It’s strange to suddenly
Listen …
I’m his mother.
His dream is to run
hold the purse strings.
to study doll making.
Imagine how hard that was.
