Playing under a million sand
Treading my way through it
Laughing with my most important person
Every drop of the sand
Every single grain of it
Holds my emotion, my memory in it
Every drop of the sand
Reminds me that the clock is ticking
Every piece that poured down
Means time is running
A million sand
A million sand
My precious memories

The author's comments:

A manga called Skip Beat! by Yoshiki Nakamura inspired me to write this piece of poem, and I hope that people will treasure their memories more because when we're old, they're the most precious things we'll own.
