Life

Life exists in a unique way for each of us.

I ardently hope that my energy reaches you.

I don’t know who might benefit from this.
Nor do I know how this might be of benefit.

Even so, I imagine that person’s life
Being uplifted after feeling my energy,
And let it take shape onto the paper.

How their life will be uplifted. How my emotions will be interpreted.
I believe that is also unique to each person.
How I wish for them to feel, such an answer doesn’t exist.

I was raised in a very strict manner.
As a result, both the tenacity to continue to write
And the irrepressible energy and desire to write
Have been engraved into my life.

How will I use my life?
By putting my life, this life that I have now, all on the line.

It is because I have life that my current self exists
And that I able to express my sentiments.

I ardently hope that
My energy reaches you.
