Welcome, lengthening hours of daylight
Sunshine, soft-blooming the rose on my cheek
Full-flowered cherry trees, a lovely sight
The perfect location is all we seek
Shaded by fir trees, we dance to slow beats
And dine on fried chicken, melon and chips
We share soft, lingering kisses so sweet
And savor our wine, taking slow deeps sips
Stay ‘til the sun, low on the horizon
Flashes bright, bright as it takes its last peek
And paints the sky with pastel perfection
Night falls. In reverent whispers you speak
Mouth close to my ear, breath warm on my face
Love words so sweet, in our favorite place

Maybe I've grown up.
Maybe I've grown up. I am less angry and have become more scared. Although I care about right and wrong, Now I have started keeping quiet. Maybe I've grown up. After all, I am human. I laugh with everyone, but cry alone. Maybe I've grown up. The road is long, and there are also shadows of dense trees. But now I don't stop; I just keep moving. Maybe I have grown up.

The AI Attack on Humanity
This dream haunted me for years. It seemed like I couldn't go not even one night without this same dream. Sometimes, something new would happen but the little boy was always with me. I still cannot figure out who he was. Perhaps he was my son in a past life?
