Intro
"A genius forsaken by the times."
Who called for me?
The dream of one who has nothing. It never escapes the boundaries of their lifelong perspective. A small, humble thing. A dream far too meager to be called a lifelong ambition.
If I had been born into a prestigious noble family, I wouldn't have held onto a goal like this for my entire life. These brushstrokes of a pauper's lamentation...
I desperately want to finish it even now, but it's 20 minutes until my part-time job. I must start putting on my shoes. Two brushstrokes of lingering regret.
As I step outside, the damp, chilly air fills my lungs. The weather isn't good today. As if it might rain soon, the sky is dyed in a dull, gloomy color, just like my heart.
[ Berlin The Flower ]
How long has it been since I started watching the counter? In this flower shop, amidst the fragrant blooms, the sound of rain begins to seep in.
His world was like that. Like paint placed upon a canvas. Like the dense letters in a book. Like the melody of E on the keys. His world was visible only as much as he possessed.
