1.Was there ever a reason to breathe,
2.Even just a handful of times?3.
4.The small love that once existed in this world—
5.I’ll hold on to it so it won’t be lost.6.
7.Even if the step I take is the same as always,
8.My view begins to open up.9.
10.Take flight,
11.Spread your hands wide,
12.A living proof stretching white into the sky.13.
14.Keep smiling,
15.In this beautiful world,
16.Breaking through the clouds of tears.17.
18.It feels like my whole body is trembling,
19.As if I’m running out of oxygen.20.
21.The echo of a heartbeat reverberates in the sky.22.
23.Dawn breaks.24.
25.I struggled, gasping for air,
26.In days that felt like I was drowning.
27.My wings are broken; I can no longer ascend,
28.Only sink further down.29.
30.Enduring the pain, my pulse beats on—
31.To save myself,
32.Weighed down by decompression sickness.33.
34.Take flight.35.
36.I’ll spread these hands,
37.Reaching higher and higher—this is not in vain.38.
39.Don’t cry,
40.I won’t disappear.41.
42.When the rainclouds sob
43.And drench you,
44.I hope you’ll remember me.
