Valentine's day

Like a fine trickle, my body crumbles into sand and disappears with it. Slowly, very slowly, and with a bit of luck you could even have started counting the grains of sand. Away from the place where it all began and everything ended. Back where I couldn't see the others anymore. Although the sun should have risen above the peaks of the sand dunes long ago, it was hiding behind the darkness that is contracting more and more in the sky.

My insides all turn to ash, so slow
And blew away as I collapsed, so cold
A black wind took them away, from sight
And held the darkness over day, that night

Now I'm in the middle of the desert. Somewhere and yet nowhere. There was no one who would miss me. Nobody who would remember me. Just the sand that followed me every step of the way.
Carefully my gaze slides to the sky. The dark clouds are tightening more and more. Almost as if they were going to war, they looked so dissatisfied.But also the wind pulls heartlessly through the desert and whirls up the dry sand. On and on, he blows the fine grains of sand. My blood-red hair moves silently to the beat.

And the clouds above move closer
Looking so dissatisfied
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing

I always had my own protection. A protection that no one could break, except then ...
Everyone had someone to celebrate this strange day with. They were all so happy and joyful. Only I didn't understand. It was my fate to be alone. Even on a day like this ...
But then ... Then suddenly you showed up. I still remember every little detail that was so unimportant. That day the sun was so bright and warm that it was almost eerie. The wind had stopped blowing as if to please people. And your smile, so sad. You were alone too. Just like me. He had left you, let you down.But I didn't care until ...
Until you came up to me with gentle steps. Your hands were shaking, so shaking. Your footprints were firmly depicted in the sand, like a memorial that should never have passed. Never!
And then you stood in front of me. I remember how excited and nervous you were. You had soaking wet tears in your deep green eyes that radiated pity.
You carefully clung to my white coat and pulled me to you. I was far too taken by surprise to react in any way.
And your voice. Your sweet, bright voice. I can still hear her haunted my head. I will never be able to forget her.
"Happy Valentine's day, Kazekage-sama!" You had whispered in my ear. So soft. Almost instantly, my heart seemed to stop when I felt your lips come to rest on mine. I felt you with me. Never in my whole life have I been as close as you were then.I wish the moment had never stopped. But it had to be.
Before you left, you turned to me one more time and I saw your smile. As beautiful and fragile as that of a glass doll. Oh, would you have stayed, just a minute longer. One minute longer in which I should have admired you. No more…
But today I somehow lost my way. Maybe it was my destiny to be alone. I still remember his words. They burn too deep in my soul.
"It's too late Gaara, she won't come back ..." And although I protested violently, I knew deep down that I would never see you again. Because a black wind carried you away from me and will never let you go.
Oh yes, today, darkness would reign as it did at night, just as it would in my heart.

I used to be my own protection, but not now
'Cause my path had lost direction, somehow
A black wind took you away from sightAnd held the darkness over day, that night

The clouds are gathering more and more and turning day into night
The sandy soil is getting cooler. Without the sun, there is also an oppressive cold here on the ground. I don't know if you lie deep underground somewhere in the distance, forever dreaming a deep, never-ending dream. How I would like to see your face again. Look one last time into your sparkling green eyes that even emeralds would have turned pale with envy.
But I know that I am here alone, only the heartless wind continues to blow and will continue to do so in a hundred years.

And the clouds above moved closer
Looking so dissatisfied
And the ground below grew colder
As they put you down inside
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing

Yes, I know you left and you will never come back. Because you are now in a place where there is no return. The thought drives me painfully slowly to despair, because I know that I am powerless against it.But now I know I was wrong After all that has happened, I never would have thought it possible that I would know what it is like to be alone ...

…At Valentine's Day…

So now you're gone
And I was wrong
I never knew what it was like
To be alone ....

On a Valentine's Day ... On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day ... On a Valentine's Day

I stare spellbound at the endless desert landscape. But how can that be? I persistently rub my eyes, but the picture still lingers. A young woman, with short pink hair and green, sparkling eyes like emeralds, walks slowly, very slowly towards me. Although she radiates pure light, I can't take my eyes off her, she has enchanted me so much.
She claws carefully into the fabric of my white robe and gently lays her lips on mine. I desperately try to hold onto her, but after only a few seconds she breaks the kiss and her delicate figure looks at me with a smile.Panicked, I try to take her hand, but I just slip through it. One last time, I hear her angelic voice whispering: "Happy Valentine's Day, Kazekage-sama!" and suddenly a cold, black wind comes up and swallows it into the darkness from which it came and would never give it up again.

On a Valentine's Day ... On a Valentine's Day
[I used to be my own protection, but not now]
On a Valentine's Day ... On a Valentine's Day
['Cause my mind has lost direction, somehow]
On a Valentine's Day ... On a Valentine's Day
[I used to be my own protection, but not now]
On a Valentine's Day ... On a Valentine's Day
['Cause my mind has lost direction, somehow

Only the wind would continue to blow heartlessly. As he always did without saying a word. After all, it was always there and always would be. Even on Valentine's Day ...
