The Emerald Sanctuary
by Sasami

Shitte Imasu

No one should be alone.
No one should know sorrow.
No one should suffer from
Dark unhappiness. But --
But I know the pain and
Sadness all too well.
I know the heartbreak that
Comes with learning the one
You love loves another.
I know the hopelessness
Found when your happiness
Disappears and fails to
Return. I know the pain
Of rejection by those
You trust with all your heart.
I know the darkness that
Comes when the clouds obscure
And hide the light of hope.
No one should know these things,
But I know them too well.
