What do you think the meaning behind it is? Under the gazebo by the sea, my dear darling Sayaka and I sit drinking tea.
She puts a red ribbon around my neck.
A soft, innocent trap. On the sunny day, in the quiet, we hear the sea waves.
We play chess: the king beats the queen.
At first, I thought this was too easy until she tricked me and we both laughed.
We lift our glasses,
Clink our cups,
and the wind carries the sound like faraway, silver bells.
She asks me, what would I like to eat day after day hour after hour we do this in my dreams. I know this is all imaginary, but I don't want to leave.
Under the gazebo by the sea it was a moonlit night when my Darling Sayaka and I were eating the best sweets in the land.
Mini croissants that melt like spiders on the tongue, Parfait the color of drowned roses. I wonder if it's all a dream. I hear the screams of the living. I hear the begging of the ones who died. Something is wrong; I must leave before she devours me.
She whispered softly in my ear, not loud, not real, but always hear this time she tells me to eat the heavenly feast given to me.
As I eat, I ask her what she would like to eat? Happy, she kisses my cheek like an angel of death, something bittersweet without ugliness.
Her lips could only ever be sweet for me. Our lips will tear our souls day after day and hour after hour until the abyss takes her and me once I stop living in this dream, I will take away her guilt with our kiss of death, my dear darling Sayaka.
She tells me we will just have to wait and see.
Day after day hour after hour, we do this in my dreams under the gazebo by the sea Sayaka cannot stop staring at me. Her blue eyes deeper than the ocean that waits below.
We were friends, weren't we? She would never do anything to hurt me.
The ocean tide begins to rise. I fear that one day it will drown me.
If this is my second death I would not want this scene to ever die.
If she and I cannot die, when time is dead there’s no reason for the ocean to rise. When these words bleed out, I still fear that the ocean is one day going to drown me, but that won’t matter because I have Sayaka with me and she’s all I ever need.
When I’m with her the sea never rises, yet I will always feel her, the ocean-blue eyes of my dear darling Sayaka watching, waiting, smiling.
She asked me if I enjoyed her desserts: before offering me another sweet.
She tells me every detail on how it was made.
Not paying attention I drowned into her ocean eyes a little bit too deep.
But before I drowned she grabbed my hand back to safety being saved by her has always been my dream.
She asked me if I was okay and I told her I was pleased that He only created her to love me. She told me that was sweet and told me to finish my parfait before it gets soggy. Freezing I felt the old illness rising again, heavy, familiar, rotting from within A wind blew out of a cloud, cold and chilling.
Or maybe it was the feeling of her kiss
croissant sweetness laced with something older than the sea,
the faint rot of spiders on her tongue.
Her sweet smile never faltered. Captivating it was taking and reaping my soul.
The frost on my bones melted into sudden spring.
Petals drifted where snow should have been.
Under the gazebo by the sea, me and her were drinking tea.
Get me out of here, get me out of here, I don't want to stay.
I don't want to suffer for my sins.
I must be forgetting something.
That’s what my delusions are telling me.
I forgot how many hours and days my dear darling Sayaka and I have been under this gazebo by the sea.
That’s right how can I forget it’s our 4,745 anniversary?
Will it even matter when the dream ends? Every day is our anniversary.
Every second every minute every hour of the day matters when I’m with her because every day is our anniversary, to delight her I asked her what does she want to feast.
The smell of salt, decay and rot all rushing out towards me.
The ocean tide begins to rise, demons, hands, reaching for me. She ties the red ribbon around my neck, beheading me. My head rolls on her platter.
The angels intentionally made her have a feast, like the parfaits we used to eat, they
use their forks to take a bite out of me.
My taste is one that stings your tongue, rots your teeth, and stays forever.
The Demons reach out for the feast,
taking my decomposing body, flooding me.
The gazebo sinks under the sea.
My soul forever separate from my dear darling.
In her heaven, I imagine she is still having tea.
While in hell I have a longing for her to reunite with me.
Goodbye, my dear darling Sayaka.
I won’t forget how the angels and demons took you away from me.
I’ll miss you until I forget everything about me
and this gazebo by the sea.
Yet even now, in the dark between deaths,
I still hear the clink of porcelain cups,
still taste the sweetness of drowned roses,
still feel the red ribbon freezing around my throat.
I still remember how memory rotted into something sweet
And somewhere, under a gazebo that no longer stands,
my dear darling Sayaka smiles,
blue eyes deeper than any ocean,
waiting for me to answer once more
what I would like to eat
day after day,
hour after hour,
In hell I imagine we stayed talking in this dream I and she under the gazebo by the sea.
