You promised you would come.
Through the lonely night,
I waited in the dark
until the pale moon waned.
Having never waited,
a woman like you
could hardly know
how long a night can be.
The moon looks at me
like a careless stranger,
plunging life into sorrow.
Alone, I ponder ...
Time passes
in the sound of snow.
The sun still rises,
but a new day never comes.
