No matter how deep your hatred is rooted my love will always force your roots to grow out into slender threadlike appendages that may constrict your throat. The very same throat that spouts out words of hatred, words of love. Sounds and sayings that no one will know but me.

Because I know you. How your lips move as you speak will send me into a silent dance with your words. Your arms outstretched around my waist as the guileful phrase that you sighed out grabs me tenderly. They take me by the hand to waltz with me as the sword dug deep into my back bleeds out the very same love.

The love I've kept locked inside for only you to see.

Your words and your memories flow straight out of your deep, disgustingly beautiful eyes into my head. My head being swallowed by the unbearable pressure of water riveting through each of my senses.

Bubbles filled with untold lies and savory words leave my mouth as your words open the gash in my back even wider.

No memories ever connected with you like they did for me.

I hope you regret your decision all the same, though as I also wish that you feel greater passion than I've ever felt for you. You deserve pain, and I hope that it never gets delivered to you.

For, you know, I love you.

I wish I could give you my final word from under this water. But I will never be able to. And I don't think I want you to hear.

My final vengeance to you may be simple.

For people live a long time, Dazai; an eternity without me. You will look into the faces of passers by, hoping for an instant for something that will bring me back to you.

As you gaze into a dark sky you will find the moonlit nights passing by strangely empty, for when you call my name through them once again...

There will be no answer.
