Letter from a Ghost

Do you still remember?
That day in the summer rain,
Underneath the cherry tree
Wrapped in sorrow and pain?

Can you still see it?
Our hopes and our dreams
Tangled and shredded,
Split at the seams?

Why did you promise,
If you were going away?
Why did you leave me,
That rainy summer day?

But can I still hope?
Can I still wonder?
That you'll be the rainbow
After I brace the thunder?

Do you still remember?
After watching the ages flow.
Remember that you loved me,
Five hundred years ago?
