Hagoromo

I've read about it somewhere...

Kaguya-hime was unable to feel
That was why Tsukuyomi no Mikoto sent her to earth
To learn how to feel

But truly, Kaguya-hime is anything but numb
She feels everything more intensely than anyone else
But no one can comprehend what she was feeling
Why she did what she did

So they punish her
Forcing her to feel
Only to make her forget all the lessons she learned 
All the feelings she felt

Nevertheless I wonder
What would it feel like to just wear the hagoromo
And slip away into the cold white light
Leaving all in the void behind
