HY - 366 days
i'm fine with it. it was a love that seems to be fine like this
even though i knew you couldn't return, i want to be connected to you
it was the first time I felt this way
as time goes by we can still meet occasionally
because verbal promises were natural
i'm fine with it as well
this wish of mine which won't come true anyway
that you would fall in love with me again
such a transient wish of mine
today i want to meet you again
i'm fine with it. it was a love that seems to be fine like this
before I knew, you even refused to meet me
when i'm alone i start thinking
at that time, should i had rather forgotten(about you)?
but these tears are the answer, aren`t they?
i can't lie to my heart
it's almost scary that i can remember your smell, your action and everything
“Weird, isn`t it?”, please say so and laugh
even though we're separated, it`s nothing but you
i never thought that love would be so painful, that love would be so sad
i realized that i was serious about you
it's almost scary that i can remember your smell, your action and everything
“weird, isn`t it?”, please say so and laugh
even though we're separated, it`s nothing but you
you are someone inside me that i can't forget about, someone who offered me everything
even if you can never return anymore
right now it's only you, just you
nothing but you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm in love with this Japanese drama and its OST. It suits the drama perfectly.
The show is all about 'Fate'. Akai Ito means 'the red string of fate'. It is an East Asian belief that there is a red string tied around the pinky/ankle of a man and a woman and is connected to each other. The two are destined to be together as soul mates.
The story is a mobile novel which is popular in Japan.
You can’t put your true feelings into words. I can’t express my important feelings. If the two of us could exchange the feelings in our hearts, would we see… would we see that destiny was on our side?” -Akai Ito ep.5
The story is a mobile novel which is popular in Japan.
It’s said that after a person is born, they will meet approximately 30,000 people before they die. Of those people, the number of people you’ll meet and work with is 3,000 and of those you’ll intimately know is 300. Among all these encounters, it’s said God has arranged a special one for you. One made from before you were born. However, that bond of fate is invisible to everyone and yet that unseen person in your destiny is connected to you by a red string in your pink(little finger). That’s why..That’s why I fell in love with you the moment we met…
-Atsushi Nishino (Mizobata Junpei)
Sweet, right?
Sorry for showing my 'otaku' side. But I support the Japanese music, drama, anime, manga and many more. Plus the culture is so rich.
I think that fate is common theme in YA books today. Would you agree?
