Cherry blossoms should represent beauty and the fragility of life. They were symbolized as an omen of good fortune, an emblem of love and affection, but for me, cherry blossoms were the sign of a love that died.

I certainly knew that the night I saw you.

It was the night a cherry blossom fell and touched two lips that lie.
