Three Wise Monkeys

(Kikazaru, Mizaru, Iwazur)

I hear you are in town
  saying you want to start over.
I hear tha those wedding bells ended,
  as dusk turns to dawn.
I hear my heart pounding,
  the same beat, that I played on our door.

I see that things are different,
  the invincible girl, now a vulnerable  wreck.
I see your make-up running,
  as fast as you did from me.
I see that this is not like a balloon
  traveling in its own way, hopeless of stopping.

I'll speak only calming words
  like a mother to her newborn.
I'll speak of hope
  but at a distance, for my own safety.
I'll speak my mind
  and maybe this time,
    things will end differently.
