Tomorrow I will leave forever. I know I'll leave some things behind. Some things I never knew about, I too leave behind. Perhaps I'll miss the moon. Perhaps the stars. Will I miss someone on the other side?
There will be farewells, or none at all. I don't really mind. Who's to blame for forgetting someone you don't see often? None but fate, if one believes in it. Blame destiny, blame God, blame your parents, blame your teachers, blame your friend.
Blame oneself. Blame none. See all. See nothing. Know all. Know nothing.
Before I leave on the path of cold stone, shall I regret another day not well lived? Shall I cringe at leaving my loved ones? Shall I worry about the debts unpaid to my debtors? Shall I want any happiness got gotten?
Before I leave on the unknown road, shall I make peace with myself? Shall I tell my loved ones before I go? Shall I settle all debts and collect all debts to my family? Shall I take anything on my long road to nowhere in particular?
No.
I leave only a memory, and a song.
For all to sing, that I lived.
Goodnight my little piano player
Goodbye my shining star.
