The only thing I cherish is you

Status, money, body, etc., if they can be used in exchange for you, those are not important.


The meaning of a duel changes from the dignity of a samurai to revenge for a loved one, how the pain in the heart is expressed.
For example, a favorite painting, a book, or a piece of pottery has been splashed with stains that cannot be wiped off. The feeling of heartache that can't be undone no matter what you use is only one ten thousandth of the feeling.
You are the only one, and the purest. That kind of grief is like a Christian seeing the body of Jesus being whipped, like a Buddhist seeing Buddha being stepped on thousands of feet and falling into the abyss; like seeing the shattering of faith and collapse.
The only thing I hold dear is you. I abandon you because I can't bear to see your haggard and humiliation; I miss you because you are the only one I love.


Woman, don't think why is more important than yourself, don't think that your purity and love can be exchanged, and nothing can be exchanged for your love. I'd rather lose what I'm about to lose than lose you.
