"O doctor, O God of the good ward. I am docile as a snowdrift, pliable and transient. I am here vanishing right as you look." --Leila Chatti, from "Inpatient Triptych," published in West Branch
Ah, Inside the darkness the moon is white / Is time stopped in sleep? / A long night is, again, ahead / A distant light / Just like in your dream Ah, it's written in this heart / Even when I can't see anything / There's only one memory I keep close / One, one forever Can't return to that day twice / I can't be with you anymore / A heavy memory in this sea of solitude / An unusal pain that passed / I believe in love Ah, in the darkness I walk / Is time stopped in sleep? / A long night is, again, ahead / You and I may have to wait And, returning to that day / Together we smile / But only that pain breaks me / The only one I have this feeling for / Time can pass, but the scar will remain Returning to that day / It will always be written in this heart / Forever in the sky shining / The only one I have this feeling for / You are my white moon Shiroi Tsuki Lyrics Translation (click me!)
