(this poem is based off one of my favorite songs, aishite aishite aishite by miori celesta, but made to be in english with japanese words. i made a challenge to myself to not look up the english lyrics, i can only go by english covers)

some japanese words you need to know for context (you can skip this and be confused if you want to be):

ねえ (nee) — hey

いい子 (iiko) — good girl

でしょ (desho) — right, as in correct

苦しい (kurushii) — it hurts (literally: pain, suffering)

愛して (aishite) — love me

もっと(motto) — more

ごめんなさい (gomennasai) — i’m sorry

aight now it’s time for the actual poem

—

_Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh_…

_Laaaaalaaaaalaaaaalaaaaa, lalalalalalalalalala_…

_Laaaaaalaaaaaa_…

Far, far away, where there’s none to escape,

A child wore a white collar of lace.

“I’m _begging _for humans, you best feed me humans!”

Mercilessly cried this hungry collar.

_Please do not leave, I will do as you please,_

_Just don’t go, I want you to just stay…_ _(ねえ…)_

“Come fasten me tight, ‘till you’re _begging_ for life!

Now tighter and smaller,

You’ll never escape!”

Can’t you come praise me, oh, please?

ねえ, ねえ, いい子でしょ?

Aren’t I a cute, precious girl?

ねえ, ねえ, いい子でしょ?

苦しい, ねえー!

愛して, 愛して, 愛して! もっと, もっと!

愛して, 愛して! Make me gasp for love,

Don’t let me breathe!

苦しい, 苦しい…

Just set me free…

もっと, もっと, ねえ－!

Much too late,

_I_ _can_’_t_ _be_ _saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaved_…

No matter how old and tall she had grown,

This wretched collar had remained small.

“It’s wrapped up too tight, you can’t satisfy!

My appetite is so much, you won’t appease!”

Mother, look at my grades, they are all A’s,

Aren’t you proud of me, oh so amazed? (ねえ…)

I’m better than them, compared once again!

I’m leaving this house, to be better than this!

Could it be, can it be love?

Behind the gym, please meet me at lunch,

You might think it’s way too much…

I cannot lie, you’re just my kind,

Though you can’t treat me right at all!

愛して, 愛して, 愛して…

I’ll give you everything…

Then I’ll have you,

_Then I’ll have you…_

And your shoulder all to myself..!

苦しい…

I won’t let go..!

苦しい…

もっと, もっと, ねえー…

ごめんなさい！

愛して, 愛して, 愛して!

もっと, もっと!

愛して, 愛して! Make me gasp for love,

Don’t let me breathe…

苦しい…

Don’t let me go…

苦しい…

もっと, もっと, ねえー!

This makes me so _happy..!_

_Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!_

_Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh…_
