where did you go

What if I slumber
and you appear in my dream
and you look my way
should I wave
to catch your attention?
 
If you are looking the other way
should I call your name?
But I don’t know your name.
 
I remembered you
walking under the cherry blossoms
that seemed so long ago.
Your beauty which I could not deny
was not what I remembered
but your face, a smile,
a mysterious smile
that remained in my heart.
 
I didn’t see you again.
I visited the cherry blossoms 
and waited
 but you didn’t return.
 
Maybe if  I dream
