"HACHI"

DESCRIPTION: I miss you... But as much as I wish you could return to how you were all those years ago, you're never coming back, are you?

Every day, I shall await your return diligently.
I head home, but my eyes seldom close because
I'm waiting for your silhouette to appear in front of me.
Your disappearance is still not real.
Yesterday, I was just a child, lost in the snow.
Now I cling to what I used to know,
still unable to let go of the past.
No matter how many years pass,
I will always be thinking of you.
Never moving on,
I'm defending even an empty name and image on the Internet.
No matter how many years pass,
I will not rest until I find you.
I couldn't close my eyes.
Until, of course, that day, when I heard it.
Yes...
That voice...
Familiar in its soft tone, it beckons me in with a sound I've heard before.
A sound that saved me. I take a step towards something new.
But... it was an android mimickery.
It is no longer you.
And so, I continue waiting in the past, for a present that will never come.
For a person that has already been replaced by the future.
