❆ A winter night on an anti-gravity freeway near the outskirts of Neo-Tokyo. When all the winding paths are coming together, "Because the snow is falling softly" ❆
☼ Luminescent petals shone through the clouds, blooming onto molten hills as the cattails rustle in the late-summer breeze ☼
☽ Raindrops on the windowpane patter, filaments glimmer gold before my eyes. 2:30am, I miss your lips on mine ☽
❁ Boundless green on all sides; the trees, the streams. A window distantly broken, suddenly reborn, it seems ❁
