Courage
Fear
is a crack of courage
From
the crack,
tears
drop
like
moonlight does,
waves
of tremble resound
like
a symphony does
But
courage
never breaks
Courage
that
braced to feel fear
never
breaks
even
if invisible fear
makes
it bloody
Courage
has a crack
Into
the crack,
waves
of strong breath flow
like
sunlight does
Bourbon Night
Bourbon
night
I'm
merry on the hazy moon
Hovering
world
soaks
my veins
Bourbon
night
I'm
merry on picturesque wind
Waving
world
dyes
my veins pastel colors
Tonight
is bourbon night
I'll
never be able to know
the
shape of tonight
But
I
know
the
scent of tonight,
the
silhouette of tonight
Bourbon
night
