💧Dandelion's Drops: “A Promise Left to the Wind”


by Aqua

Plop...
I fell onto a dandelion's fluff

Floating, floating
Swayed by the wind, I travel through the sky

I don’t know where I’m going,
but I hope I can reach the place where you are.
That’s all I wish for.

Even if it rains along the way,
even if a storm comes,
I’ll keep flying.

Because this droplet
is traveling through the sky
just to meet you.
