Nakahara Chuuya, pleasure to meet you.

"once I believed
love poems were foolish

now I read love poems
just for the sake of it

and yet perhaps I want
to reach a higher state of poetry

I don't know if that's right or wrong
but such a feeling persists anyway

and sometimes irritates me
provoking outrageous desires

once I believed
love poems were foolish

yet now I do nothing
but dream about love" - Chūya Nakahara 

。

"seventeen to nineteen

the snow that fell on me

dropped like hail" - Chūya Nakahara 

｡

"Like a summer night's star, even now 
visible far off in the sky, even now.

Vanishing into the dark sky, 
my young day's dreams and hope." - Chūya Nakahara
