On the Path of No Return




I have accepted it...we have drifted apart.

I've come to understand that I have unknowingly left you behind and traveled a great distance; though I paused for a moment, it didn't happen again.

Let it all pass through pain, I thought. Then again, it's also possible...that you left me midway...and moved forward at your natural pace. One of these things has happened.

But whatever has occurred—at this moment I feel utterly empty, the chamber of feeling seems completely hollow.

I know what I want to do! To put it more clearly—this is exactly how I wanted to prepare myself.

Somehow you have settled into my subconscious; that doesn't conflict with my journey. But your coming and going in my world of creation takes on special significance.

I met you today. I saw you after such a long time! I wanted to touch you deeply...it wasn't possible.

I must go. Unfortunately, we did meet. I didn't lose you in search of novelty—I simply perceived you with wonder-struck eyes.

Take care of yourself.
