Have no fear
for departure.
Is it because
I was there once,
the place of the “future”?
But how about
losing my memory?
It will be scary
to lose one’s memory.
I was scared once
when I thought
I was losing my memory.
It was as if
standing on the sand
losing mysef…
I won’t forget
that memory
when I support others.
Oh, how I am grateful
that I can walk
on the solid ground again!
But where has it gone,
my sense of “deja vu”,
a sense of nostalgia?
