One step through the mortal world, a thousand years across the vast sea. I watch the flowers of a lifetime bloom in your gaze, but you are powerless to answer, for the road ahead is beset by rain and bitter winds, stretching far toward the ends of the earth.
If we meet again in another life, the brilliant blooms of this life will still blossom for you...
You meet someone and make a mistake. You want to make amends, to repay what you owe. Only in the end do you realize that you are powerless to turn back time. The wrongs you have committed can never be made right, and we can never repay what we owe.
