The crumpled letter I never sent still in my pocket Greetings and salutations, I'm fine. *1 Don't go, one day, for you who turned your back on me... a distant memory surrounded by the warmth like a fetus. Don't go, I think of you who turned your back on me, I have to wake up. There's somewhere I have to go. keeping these feelings I can't get rid of in my heart. Translated By: Brian Stewart & Takako Sakuma Translator's Notes: On to the *'s. *1 - This is the archetypal way to start a letter in Japanese.
