Frame without portrait

At midnight, the sorrows curl
    like an ominous vine.
My Ghost groans loudly, trapped
    by the castle, disgrace!
An empty damned frame
    in the niche of the portraits
        is left.
The scent of the cherry trees
    threatens with thunder again.

I’m facing the walls,
     being flooded by Sadness
              the Moon.
It seems,
     that the source of the answer
         is somewhere behind:
How long will the freedom
     that looks like imprisonment
              last?
Still neither the Kingdom of Death
     nor the Testament Sun!

However, the walls
     hide the secret,
          are constantly deaf.
I’ll howl, the echo
     will dance in the castle
          my cry:
“Please, Artist,
     just finish my portrait,
          that missing the frame,
And hammer the nails on the wall,
     get it finally hung!”
