I remember every step
That led to the familiar door.
I remember how in an instant
Transformed all day.
Or lasted sometimes
Those moments are longer than life.
And the steps stretched towards them,
Like a series of desires.
The steps led me to you.
The steps could not tell me,
What's up the stairs leading down
A whim of fate sends me to the denouement.
Steps, you were difficult for me.
But how sad your surprise was!
Lead me to the sad end
Up the stairs leading down.

Here is the final line
And the step beyond which
Continuation of the conversation,
Like the void of the abyss.
Like I'm falling there
I'm in slow motion
And the cherished steps
Like a road to nowhere.

The steps led me to you.
The steps could not tell me,
What's up the stairs leading down
A whim of fate sends me to the denouement.
Steps, you were difficult for me.
But how sad your surprise was!
Lead me to the sad end
Up the stairs leading down.
