The Songwriter’s Funeral Song
EpilogueMiyako stares at her Walkman for a while. A few minutes when she decided to turn it on. A recording was on top of the playlist. Curiosity convinced her to pay attention to it.
Miyako,
I thought of the grassy field in a sunny weather
The wind that caresses my hair, the dancing grass in the music of the rustling leaves…
The clear, blue sky, the birds, and the fluffy clouds
All of them remind me of how wonderful the world is
I wish to live in a place like this
But the time comes to crumble it all
I would like to sing to make it, once again, peaceful
I dreamt of becoming a hero
But it turns out, I’m the one who needs a hero
Every night, I cry and ask
Why is the world changing every time?
I’m not good at adjusting to new things
I’m used to the old things which are more beautiful
I hope I can live in the world where we used to live when we were little
Maybe, in the future?
‘Til then, Miyako…Yuru
The recording ended with Miyako smiling. “Stupid,” she hissed.

Finding the true meaning of life is like asking a dead man at the funeral. You can’t have the answer. That’s why it’s up to you to make one. There is no right or wrong… because all things are made of assumptions.
Live on, Special One~

Some good reasons why to live…
You’re lucky… you have eyes to read this at the moment
Life is too short! You got to think something about how to spend it!
There are lots of different dishes… have you tasted them all?
If money is your problem, work hard! Dream and fulfill it!!
There are so many places to travel to!
There are lots of great books to read!
More great music will come!
The future might be interesting to witness.
Some people may go, but some may come.
If you have one, two, or three reasons to die, there are a million reasons to live… that’s why you have to live on!
If you think it’s too heavy to carry on, ask a psychiatrist today. There are lots of free services near you. Don’t be afraid to ask. They’ll help you!

Thank you to these fellow people who inspire, support, and make me feel that I have to live~
