As time passed, I learned about you one piece at a time.

As more time passed, I began to lose track of you, one piece at a time.

I tried comparing the fading of love to the setting sun.

A faint saudade lingering there.

If even the words that spun my feelings must cast a shadow,

Then I want to become a silent shell at the bottom of the sea.

If only I could return to the ocean without being disturbed by anyone.

Just let me remember you quietly.
