If I can’t fly, I no longer live anymore. That’s why I have escaped from the hospital. Someday, I will go up to the sky, to dance with a wonderful partner there again.

When I fly.
When I live.
The lighter, the better.

In the sky, only light things rise.
Only the free things climb up.

Wait for me.
Let’s meet each other again.
Let’s dance again.

Freely.
In the beautiful sky.
