[Free Verse] Understanding Each Other Through Conversation (with Music & Tanka)
It doesn't have to be anything special
Being able to talk honestly
about what we are each thinking
is so important
But
it's surprisingly difficult
That is precisely why
I want to cherish it
It's not just a relationship based on 'vibes'
By taking one step further
and connecting on a deeper level
the quality of our relationship
should improve
So
the night really might be
a time when magic works
Don't you feel that the nighttime
makes people more honest?
Yes
Like a letter written at night
If we talk all night long
Those words
Might be a little tipsy
So
When morning comes
Trying to be a little more level-headed
Might also be necessary
However
During the day
Things I cannot say
I feel I can say
A little
When you want to have a serious talk
The night is recommended
【A song I've chosen for a tie-up (^^♪】
【A Tanka I've chosen for a tie-up (*^^)v】
For example, like Naoya Shiga's autobiographical novel 'At Kinosaki',
'At Kinosaki / The Priest's Apprentice' (Kadokawa Bunko) by Naoya Shiga
Life and death are not things that switch over at a certain point (polar opposites).
Furthermore, other polar opposites also mix together like a mottled pattern.
In our daily lives.
We may be passing through them many times without even realizing it.
When you find yourself thinking about such things, I recommend spending your night with a collection of poems like this in your hands (^^)

(From Yusuke Kinoshita, 'You Must Have Run Away')
“The whale's song echoes in the roundness of the umbrella, to the tip of the rib bone that leads to the sea”
(From Kai Tachibana, 'A Boat Crossing the Light')
“Hands, feet, neck, bones, blood, just how many words is 'I' made of”
(From Mariko Teruya, 'Abstract Rose')
“Snow falls with the same whiteness on the two palms that weigh life and death”
(From Tomoe Nakahata, 'Snow Falls with the Same Whiteness')
“Yes, I love you so much that if I were to be reborn, I would want to be you.”
(From Yumiko Okazaki, 'Germination / If I Were a Tree')
“A star where the probability of a human being born was zero before humans were born”
(From Hisa Kagawa, 'PAN')
