Breath of Life
I wish I could live intensely,
The time lost in the past,
The lifeless past time,
The time lost in life.
I wish I could live intensely,
Because time has not given me its time,
Because I didn't feel the time in time,
Simply... because I didn't have time.
I wish I could live intensely,
Also love my beloved intensely.
More than I loved him in the past,
Much more than I love him over time.
Finally, I would like to be able to live intensely,
Because time gave me its time.
Because I didn't feel the time in time,
Simply... because I didn't have time.
