夜十時の 下高井戸
階段の隅に 革の色
屈んで載せる 掌の重み
振り向いても もう誰もいない
必要なだけ 開く二つ折り
名前と区間と 月末の日付
挟まれていた 映画の半券
先月私も 観た題名
預ければそれで 済む親切と
改札で渡せば 朝に間に合う
知らない人の 明日の三分
どちらで守るか 革を閉じる
区間の初めは この駅からで
きっと朝には ここを通る人
定期がなければ 立ち往生の
八時の改札 目に浮かぶよう
落とした朝を 私も持ってる
東京行きの ホームの鞄
あの朝の寒さは まだ手にあるの
渡し方くらい 自分で選ぶ
七時五十分 改札の脇
革の色だけ 見えるように持つ
気づいて駆け寄る コートの人に
「これ 昨夜の階段に」とだけ
何度も下げる 頭に手を振り
それぞれの線へ 朝は流れる
コートのポケット 同じ半券に
触れて改札を 私も抜ける

The Found Sonata
Akemi
The Found Sonata is a mid tempo city pop track that portrays a single chance meeting born from a leather commuter pass holder found on the station stairs late at night.
Ten at night on the steps of a small suburban station, a folded leather case, a name, a route, a date at the end of the month, and a movie ticket stub tucked inside create a quiet winter scene where the morning of a stranger becomes something worth protecting.
Performed by the fictional AI singer Akemi, the song captures the emotions of adulthood that remembers the cold of losing something on a platform, and chooses to return it by hand at the morning gate instead of leaving it to the station window.
Inspired by the late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese new music and city pop, the track reimagines that era urban lyricism through images of winter stations, commuter crowds, and the small rituals of the ticket gate.
She never mentions the matching ticket stub resting in her own pocket.
After one brief exchange, the morning flows on toward separate lines, and she touches the stub once before passing through the gate herself.
Produced by nanayon music.
Artist Profile
Akemi
A music project that reimagines the melancholic mood and nighttime glow of late 1970s to early 1980s Japanese City Pop and New Music through AI-assisted production and human direction. Akemi is a fictional singer with a backstory of being from Yamato City, Kanagawa, Japan. She sings of urban solitude, grown-up love, and bittersweet afterglow in a noir-tinged city pop sound. Lyrics, composition, vocals, and visuals are created using generative tools and curated through editing. This is an experimental project exploring the human warmth and nostalgia that can emerge from AI.
