Raindrops Footsteps Raindrops Footsteps
I thought I heard The last footsteps of Someone who's not coming back.
The sounds ofrainjust continue To echo gently, Going away to somewhere else. Space is so calm and clear. I can't stop their departure. I have to listen carefullyThose sounds are almost Fading out.
The sounds of raindrops Wet my heart Instead of my tears, New stains, Which may not be from sadness or joy, Change my core.
Into a dense fog, Footsteps are dying away. I cannot go after them Because the sounds of rain Stop me. To a place where I shouldn't go, These footsteps are going. I can't even make a sound, I have to send them off. The raindrops Are saying to me, "You did enough, you did enough ... "
