12. Tomato
Because you insisted on the impossible, we made the veranda into a field
I prepared on becoming your dream
On that side are white people, on that side are black people
Casually, you created red tomatoes
Getting on an aimless ship, life takes brightness
By the time we will get to that nameless piece of earth…
Without hesitation, you are you
Will you become a red tomato in the world?
You are smiling softly to my weak heart
I think I will think the same thing, tomorrow and the day after that
Until death do us part,
life is the reason it ends
Because you insisted on the impossible, we made the veranda into a field
I decided that I would become your tomato
Why is life so fleeting – I know that it’s a once-in-a-lifetime encounter
We call that which makes us stand on that nameless edge ‘fate’
Without hesitation, you are you
Sooner or later, the gentle you is feeding
a red tomato in the world
I think I will feel the same thing, tomorrow and the day after that
The day you will quickly eat this tomato and kiss me
The spring sunlight is bluer than I thought
Even though you’re no longer here, I am smiling,
pretending to be strong, biting my teeth
Without hesitation, you are you
Will you become a red tomato in the world?
I will always give water to your weak life
I think I will think the same thing, tomorrow and the day after that
Even if death separates us, my feelings are the reason it won’t end
