I walked up the hill in the dusk With a wide back The smell of leather remained On my left hand after I took off my glove No matter how I anticipated them Your throws were too fast You teased me for starting to run away Forever laughing Whenever I get your letter Asking "are you doing well?" I can't stop The tears I've been holding back alone By my age You're already starting a family You have things to protect And I'm no match for the strength that gives you I'm sorry, these lips Will hurt someone with their lies, but Please scold me With your gentle gaze In order to overcome your letters Asking "are you doing well?" Next time I'll be strong And answer "I'm fine"
