you liked a girl. you never said anything to her. you hesitated.

she went her way, you went yours. she was successful, you were not far behind.

you met her by accident at a bar. you and her got drunk. she cried about her recently broken-up boyfriend, wondering why he left her. you hesitated.

you parted.

40 years later, you two lived in the same nursing home. you were still single. she was a widow. you thought it were too late, that you two were too old. you hesitated.

one day, she walked pass you, cracking a big, beautiful smile at you, you realized that was what had haunted you all these years, that you had loved her all along, and that it might not had been too late. you dreamed of holding her hand, walking together under the cold moonlit night. however long it could last. you no longer hesitated.

but it was really too late. she passed away not long after.

now you are on your own, your heart and soul filled with regrets.

burning your old photo with her at her grave, you wondered what if.

hesitations.

i really don’t want to be like that. don’t want to hesitate. don’t want to have to myself answer the question what if. if only people were easier to understand.

Ikimono gakari – Yell

I look back on the footprint I've left again and again
Thinking "Where is 'me' now?"
I scooped up the dead leaves in my hand
And drew my dreams on the autumn window with my numb fingertips

I have wings but I can't fly
I'm afraid of being alone, it's too painful
We're leaving behind those days of cuddling in the gentle sun
And walking on to our lonely dreams

Goodbye isn't a sad word
It's a yell that connects us to our respective dreams
I'll hold the days we spent together in my heart
And take off alone to my next sky

Why do we get impatient for an answer
And search for ourselves in darkness so deep that we get lost in it?
When we have the tears and straightforward smiles
Of just loving someone, right here?

When it comes to our real selves, we get off track, get confused
And think it’s made up by other people's words
We'll take hold of our natural weakness and the strength to face it
And start running to tomorrow for the first time

Maybe every time we say goodbye to someone
We can change, we can become stronger
Even if we take off to different skies
This love won't stop, it still remains in my heart

Ever since I realized there's no such thing as eternity
The day we laughed together, and the day we sang together
Have become strongly, deeply carved into my heart
That's why you, that's why we
Aren't anybody else, can't be beaten by anyone
We raised our voices and promised that we'd live our lives our way
Each of us chose our own path

Goodbye isn't a sad word
It's a yell that connects us to our respective dreams
Until we meet again someday
I won't forget this pride, my friend, into the sky

We have a word that we share
It's a yell that connects our voices, one heart to another
I'll hold the days we spent together in my heart
And take off alone to my next sky
