No One to Stand Beside Me at Dusk

"After dusk, I drink by the eastern hedge, and a secret fragrance fills my sleeves." Who says love is bound to last? Who says the person who loves you will always love you? And who says someone who doesn't love you now won't come to love you in the end? "The breeze knows nothing of my heart, yet it stirs the sorrow of the world." Youth is an investment. Some people end up making a fortune, while others are left heartbroken and exhausted. I thought you were the exception, but in the end, I realized you were simply the inevitable, carefully disguised. Just like this love, we were always bound to part, weren't we?
