Departure
I want to go somewhere so far from here.
I wonder when I arrive there, whom I can meet.
I want to go somewhere so much higher from here,
I wonder when I arrive there, how far I can see.
With me,
I keep some stuff such as a small bottle, a dusty camera and a grimy map in my bag.
I’ll go up and down a hill.
And I’ll make my way into a forest path.
I’ll go the way my light steps lead me,
I’m just slowly walking the path which can’t see where is the end.
Sometimes I can rest without any thoughts,
Sometimes even if I lose my way,
I’ll not hurry since I believe that this way will let me know where to go.
The new scenery might make my heart beat.
Even trifles might make me exciting.
I’m just walking and whistling.
Even though I fall down, I’m just walking on my way.
Even if I can never forget where I came from and where I grew up,
I miss those things once in a while,
I’m leaving for a broader world as I believe…
