Christmas | Yuu Ikeda

December 16, 2022

The crescent moon

on the chimney.

Like the Santa Clause

who is about to enter the house.

.

Where is a reindeer?

It’s the shadow of the crescent moon?

It’s falling snow?

.

The crescent moon

on the chimney.

Like the Santa Clause

who smiles at every future.

.

I hope the scene.

I hope the view.

Dear My Friend | Yuu Ikeda

December 9, 2022

The moon mimics my emotions

every time I look at him.

When I’m swimming in

waves of disappointment,

he emits a ray of light woefully.

When I’m floating in

ripples of expectations,

he drops rains of light hopefully.

.

Dear my friend.

Are you also writing poetry

every time night begins?

.

Dear my friend.

Are you also feeling something

every time night ends?

silent wail | Yuu Ikeda

November 2, 2022

like a raindrop

at the point of a leaf,

i am clinging to a dead life that has nothing.

.

i am just waiting

to drop on somewhere i don’t know.

i just hope to drop on somewhere i can breathe

from the bottom of my heart.

never | Yuu Ikeda

October 26, 2022

even when this world is crying,

i’m in a cocoon full of moonlit night

to protect myself.

a drop of tear never falls on me.

it is just shining emptily

like a diamond on my ring finger.

a drop of tear never falls on me.

it is just waiting for the time

to vanish from this world full of tears.

Dear | Yuu Ikeda

April 29, 2022

Paints of summer dwell in petals of spring.

Soaring cherry blossoms

seem to be crying

because vehement heat

is about to burn them away.

Dear spring,

I’m sorry I can’t stop waves of summer

but I can carve you in me.

A Poet’s Song | Yuu Ikeda

April 22, 2022

A poet is singing the hopeless song

to attract someone who loves her.

The despairing song consists of

phantasmal love, intense cravings,

and empty dawn.

A poet can’t stop singing the hopeless song

because she believes that someone loves her.

The Leak | Yuu Ikeda

March 25, 2022

Stars pretend to illuminate my notebook.

But what they are doing

is to leak to the moon

about me writing about dawn

that never comes to me.

They ridicule me.

The moon yawns on me.

The Snow Moon | Yuu Ikeda

March 18, 2022

The snow moon

celebrates me

because I gave up on

a new season

and decided to continue

writing about winter.

The full moon in February

emits a ray of light

to let winter flowers bloom

on me.

“life…” | Yuu Ikeda

March 11, 2022

Life without any goals
is a drug
that anesthetizes normality
and plants madness.

I’m full of thorns of vanity
and ivies of death
made by the life.

her sole hope | Yuu Ikeda

December 21, 2021

In a cocoon of winter,

she is breathing in

shadows of winter

and breathing out words for someone

like her who lives in the coldest winter.

Her sole hope is that

shapes of words warm someone

and herself,

to wait for spring hopefully.
