Chiyuki Koyama Poems

In my dreams I see you walk upon a sandy shore somewhere.
You keep your head down to the ground, the wind tosseling your hair.

I call your name into the air, yet the air is thick as concrete.
...

I used to be a girl of glee.
With an open heart limitlessly free.

My aura used to drip with laughter.
...

Your clothes are laced with ice and gold.

Your heart is coated with frozen mold.
...

There is a box upon my dresser, it keeps what I hold dear.

When I am too close to it I'm overcome with fear.
...

You called me to you yesterday.
You said we had to talk.

I know exactly what you'll say.
...

Oh, dear sleeping prince of mine, how I've missed you so.

The doctor's say you've one last day, then your life shall go.
...
