Artist's commentary
Castoria
The shadows of that day
That I saw in my dreams
My cry could not reach them
No matter how I depict
The me of tomorrow
I am drenched in wishes that won't
disappear
The scattered fragments
Catch them with those hands
Hold my swaying heart
And leap toward the night
Even though I depend on someone
There is nothing else that I wish for
My true self is right here
Don't close your eyes
Blown about in the wind
Like discarded junk
That nostalgic smile
No matter how I pray
For the me of tomorrow
Those answers going toward the distance
still fade away
This frozen body and
Flake of feeling
Before they rot away
Leap past the night
Even though I depend on someone
There is nothing else that I wish for
My true self is right here
Don't close your eyes
To live for the sake of someone
This moment may count for everything
Gently cast aside your fake self
And just be who you are
