Love Reveals the Heart

Oh, time, please slow down!

Don't let me grow old so quickly. I can't bear to leave her behind alone...

Many people say that, with time, you'll forget the pain and forget that person. But more often, you simply get used to being lonely, used to lying to yourself...

Life is full of unexpected turns, and you were the last surprise I ever expected.

Sometimes I wonder: if we ever meet again, would it be in a cafe on a street corner? Would I smile and exchange pleasantries with you, saying nothing about the past, just making small talk? Would I say, just say, "Long time no see"... But that was only ever a wish. In your memories, I had already disappeared.
