Life isn't Sweet {MizuEna}

- Part 2 -

Mizuki glanced at the sunrise, somehow feeling troubled,

the pain in their heart immensely doubled

They truly missed Ena and her antics,

so when they separated, Mizuki became frantic

The good memories were still there,

but they were being covered by a shadowy flare

Mizuki's friendship with Ena meant everything to them,

yes, they'll see each other again -- but when?

As Mizuki tailored a new outfit,

they wondered if Ena was shaken from the hard hit

Of terror

Sure, they couldn't see each other as of now,

but Mizuki didn't worry too much -- they didn't know how

Their secret locked, hidden away

was not the issue

Ena herself had admitted,

"I'll wait for you."

That alone was proof enough,

of her tough kindness

Mizuki sighed once, tailoring the dress

Although their life was mess, the same cannot be said

about their levels of stress

Thanks to Ena, Mizuki has yet to break

Thanks to Mizuki, Ena has yet to break

But they won't

Besides, there was still a lot to do in life,

so why would Mizuki (or Ena) try to make do with a knife?

That would only create strife, and nothing else

Mizuki had made their decision long ago,

to keep enjoying themselves,

and not let their pain show

as much as possible

Ena was the same way with her art

Any place to start

was good enough

Mizuki knew life was fine,

since Mafuyu's life wasn't on the line

anymore

Kanade was happy too, they definitely knew,

because her father returned to her,

and that alone made Mizuki smile

Yes, everything is different now,

but Mizuki wanted to embrace it

since things could be worse

Like them and Ena

The tailoring was done

but now the sun was flying home

It was so late

but not too late

Mizuki set aside the tailoring kit and newly made clothes,

wondering what Ena was doing -- nobody knows

They had sent her a message, and she had replied

even though it was getting late -- the sun had died

They wanted to do more for Ena

and themselves

Mizuki sat at their desk and decided to draw,

It didn't feel like much to them, but hopefully they saw

how hard they were trying

They compiled everything into once piece, and set aside some warm lace and fleece

They added some memorable photos and stickers,

the pain trying to grow thicker, but Mizuki wouldn't let it

They tied the ribbon, so now it was done

It was a scrapbook filled with precious everythings

It really wasn't just for Ena only, but Mizuki wanted to keep her happy

They wanted a lot of things

Ena being happy

To enjoy life to its fullest

life continuing as it was

Mizuki snapped a picture of the scrapbook and sent it to Ena,

Another message before bedtime, but it gave Mizuki the night

To reflect

And protect

who and what they truly cared about

As Mizuki cleaned up, they stared out the window

with a vivid smile

at the starry night sky

They didn't bother to ask why -- there was no need

Life always did as it pleased

What's the point of asking for answers that they'd never get?

As if they wanted answers from life, anyway

Things were fine now, and Mizuki knew that might change

in a heartbeat,

But then they would adapt accordingly

For now, they decided to appreciate everything

for what it was.
