Short update for this new wallpaper I put on. It's Kakyou, Hokuto, and Verlaine.
Here's a translation of the poem :
My Familiar Dream
I often have this strange and piercing dream
of a nameless woman- that we love each other;
she loves and understands me; never the same
woman, nor yet at any time another.
She understands me, and my heart grows clear
for her alone- no problem; she knows how
to wipe away the sweat from my pale brow,
and only she can cool it with her tears.
Blonde, auburn or brunette?- I do not know.
Her name? I remember it is sonorous
and sweet as the names of those loved long ago,
exiled by Life. And like a statue's wide
gaze is hers. Serene and grave, her voice
has the tone of those dear voices that have died.
