The room keeps what
the road forgets.
A photograph holds what she saw.
The story follows what she questioned.
The door is closed, not locked.
Beyond it, every place holds a story.
The room
So I kept them on the page.
I kept the way they paused when they spoke, the look in their eyes when they were angry and refused to meet mine, the sight of their backs as they said goodbye without turning around.
A note from the creatorInto the world
I watched the stops go by, thinking over and over the words I should’ve said.

Memory · 余韻の間
A case, a folded obi, a branch after winter. Each carries the trace of a place, a person, or an unanswered question.
