| | I've always wanted to learn | ||
| | the guitar but never had | ||
the nerve to try. | |||
| | }} | ||
| | {{vgc|column=2|poem= | ||
When I did finally get up the | |||
| | courage, I found that SHE | ||
| | worked at the local music | ||
shop. | |||
| | }} | ||
| | {{vgc|column=2|poem= | ||
She told me I had nothing | |||
| | to be afraid of, that playing | ||
| | guitar was simple. Easy for | ||
her to say--everyone knows | |||
| | her band is big in Japan. | ||
| | }} | ||
{{vgc|column=2|poem= | |||
| | I didn't have enough money | ||
| | to buy one that day, but she | ||
let me try out a guitar and | |||
| | showed me some chords. | ||
| | }} | ||
{{vgc|column=2|poem= | |||
| | I came back a lot over the | ||
| | next six months while I | ||
saved up my allowance. | |||
| | }} | ||
| | {{vgc|column=2|poem= | ||
Now I've bought my guitar, | |||
|Each time I tried to pluck up | I've started a band, and I'm | ||
| | practicing a lot. I even | ||
| | wrote a song for her. | ||
}} | |||
| | {{vgc|column=2|poem= | ||
| | Only problem is I can't bring | ||
myself to play it for her. So | |||
| | instead, I'll invite her to our | ||
| | first live show. | ||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=2|poem= | |||
After school, we sat on a | |||
bench together while I tried | |||
to work up the courage to | |||
give her the ticket I got her. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=2|poem= | |||
My throat was parched, and | |||
my mind was racing. For | |||
some reason, some weasels | |||
were looking at us... | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=2|poem= | |||
And then a strange thing | |||
happened. A soccer ball | |||
came at us, and I reflexively | |||
gave it a good kick. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=2|poem= | |||
It felt great! It calmed me | |||
down too. Even the weasels | |||
seemed happy. So I started | |||
kicking away my feelings. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|''{{Nihongo|My Feelings}}''}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
I decided to take up the guitar | |||
and headed to the local music | |||
shop. That was when I first | |||
saw her. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
She was in the year above mine | |||
and already had a band which | |||
had won several competitions. | |||
I heard she'd even been | |||
approached by a famous music | |||
producer. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
I hadn't saved enough pocket | |||
money to buy a guitar but I | |||
headed to the shop and she | |||
let me try one out. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
I went to the shop a lot | |||
after that. She was so | |||
helpful and her knowledge | |||
about guitars blew me away. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
Six months later I had | |||
bought that guitar, practised | |||
every day and even formed | |||
my own band. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
I just had to let her know my | |||
feelings for her with one of my | |||
own songs. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
But there was no way I could | |||
sing to her until I had learned | |||
to play better. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
And then it all seemed to fall | |||
into place. My band got its first | |||
gig and I hoped that she would | |||
come to watch us. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
I went to tell her after school | |||
and took her a ticket in my | |||
trembling hands. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
We sat down outside and chatted | |||
about school but I had trouble | |||
telling her about my gig. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
Each time I tried to pluck up | |||
the courage to ask her to come | |||
a ball would fly out of nowhere | |||
and ruin the moment. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
If that wasn't enough, I had a | |||
pair of ferrets making a racket | |||
in front of me too! | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
Strangely, the more balls I | |||
kicked away, the more confident | |||
I got. Maybe it was something | |||
about my kicking to the rhythm | |||
but the ferrets seemed to calm | |||
down too. | |||
}} | |||
{{vgc|column=3|poem= | |||
I was sure this was the perfect | |||
moment to tell her how I feel... | |||
