The Distance When We Turn Around

Not every love is meant to reach its end. Some partings are another kind of growth.

Once, we loved each other with all our hearts, our feelings true and burning.

We met when we were young, and joyfully imagined a future together, year after year.

We thought our passionate love could overcome every obstacle in the world, and that as long as we walked side by side, we would reach the destination we had envisioned.

But reality brought one fork in the road after another, and we each found our own path to follow.

Two ordinary young people gradually found themselves on completely different roads through life, carried along by the torrent of time.

That turn away from each other wasn't the end of a bitter love, but the gentle closing of a glorious youth.

Those passionate, sincere feelings remain quietly in the past. We carry these precious memories with us as we slowly grow and mature, learning to make peace with regret and bravely journey toward the mountains and seas that await us.

Having loved was enough. There's no need to cling to each other. As we part here, I only wish that the road ahead for both of us will be open and bright.
