書くしかない自分。

 今日、母が倒れました。

病院で母の処置を待っている間

そっと外へ出て

暗い

夜の空を眺めていました。

星が見えないかなと。

少しでも見えたら

心が休まるのにって。

風は冷たくて

空も真っ暗で。

そんな中

じっと息をしているしかなかった。

私には書くことしかないみたい。

あまり必要とはされてないかもしれないけれど

ごめんねって。

明日も元気で

皆様も、どうかお元気で

Today, my mother collapsed.

While waiting for her treatment at the hospital,
I quietly stepped outside.

The night was dark.

I looked up at the sky, wondering if I could see any stars.

If only I could spot even a single star,
maybe my heart would feel a little at ease.

The wind was cold,
and the sky was pitch black.

In that darkness,
all I could do was breathe, silently.

It feels like all I can do is write.

It might not be of much use,
but still, I want to say, “I’m sorry.”

May tomorrow be filled with health and happiness.
And to everyone, please take care and stay well.
