To my Fallen Butterfly

Sayonara, utsukushii chou


A small tribute to my beloved Butterfly (from my purple velvet handphone cover) that was Lost during the trek I made to the Office of the Evil and Petty People on that faithful day. That very day marks the turning point in my life when I finally accepted that our Country has a bleak future unless something is done to remedy the attitude of our people.


ロストバタフライ ルルティア
(Lost Butterfly RURUTIA)

Butterfly 彷徨うよ 地下鉄は迷宮さ
はばたいても はばたいても 見つからない 出口

Someday もし君に そんな日が 訪れたら
思い出して 思い出して 僕は此処にいるよ

幸せの意味はたぶん 心の数だけあって
だけど それじゃ多すぎて
見失う 僕ら

さあ 繰り返すような日常が
ゆっくり未来変えてゆく
焦るほど絡みつく 夢というクモの糸

君が羽焦がし飛ぶのなら 太陽さえ 届くだろう
美しく 熔ければいい 微笑み 見せながら

Anyway いつの日か 人は皆 別れゆく
それでもいい それでもいい 君に僕は逢えた

Far away 離れても 幸せは祈れるよ
届かなくても 届かなくても 君の歌を作ろう

生まれた意味は きっと
死にゆく時 気づける
だけど それじゃ遅すぎて
彷徨うよ 僕ら

さあ 押し潰すような現実は
きっと君を変えるだろう
変われるから 君は君で 在り続けるのさ

君が声嗄らし叫ぶなら 三日月さえ 落ちるだろう
躊躇わず ゆくがいい かすかな光でも...

繰り返すような日常が
ゆっくり未来変えてゆく
焦るほど絡みつく 夢というクモの糸

君が羽焦がし飛ぶのなら 太陽さえ 届くだろう
美しく 熔ければいい 微笑み 見せながら

Like a wandering butterfly in a labyrinth
Fluttering without finding a way out

If that would someday happen to you
Remember, I'm right here

The meaning of happiness is probably
Just a number in our hearts, but
If it's too much, we lose sight of us

Come, these repeating ordinarities
Are slowly changing the future
Hurrying will only weave webs around our dreams

If you could fly with those wings
You could probably reach the sun
They would melt beautifully while you smiled

Anyway, some day everyone will part
And yet, nevertheless, I met you

Even if we're separated, I can wish for your happiness
If it won't reach you, I'll make this song for you

Surely, the reason for our births
Will worry us when we're about to die
But at that time it will be too late
For us to roam about

Come, the crushing reality
Is changing you, I know
But even if you change, you will still be you

If you shouted your voice dry
Even the crescent moon would probably fall
Go on without hesitation, for there is a faint light...

Looking on the brighter side however, check out my new chiffon babydoll top! Its ability to be a layer-type clothing is not lost on me and I am pleased with it. It looks excellent with my (okay, correction. My mom's. Though I am holding the jacket prisoner) red suede jacket too.



Ah, another matter, has anyone seen this bag (bottom pic) in RED anywhere? I think it's an old Elle Paris bag but I've fallen in love with it only now (why didn't I go shopping earlier in the year or something?). Oh well, guess I'll never get it. It's called the Elle Be Be Boston bag...just in case. ;)



I am so desperate for a cute bag that I even dreamed of getting one last Tuesday while I was asleep on the sofa. It was like the new Carlo Rino pattern only like the Elle Paris bag size (a little bigger maybe). I was walking with E in a shopping complex when I saw this high end boutique (I just knew it was one in the dream. no arguments please just because I cannot recall a specific name) with gorgeous travelling bags lined up on the upper display shelf. I was ecstatic with glee! I went in and asked the boy salesperson to please get a new one from their storeroom for me. I was practically jumping with joy at finding a bag that suit my hunger for cuteness and practicality. Damn, when my mom woke me up from my sleep then.
