Gardenia Flower



My key locked itself
In the hope of a return
To what was now a story
Simple and common story

Rainy mornings in cities of people
Now are open spaces where I wonder
About teary people in cities of steel
Within them the past lingers, and the story hides

My key lost itself
Next to a window
On a rainy day
In a town with no past

...And, if I push open again
My window shutters one day
I may tell a story
To a new morning and day

And then
Throw my key away
