If you are uncomfortable with your words, you are promising. The sentences written by those who have no doubt about words are not worth reading.

Ryuichi Tamura

 

 

If I don't trace the outline in words, I don't even know that it exists, but, if I put it in words, I feel that something has been missed. As if something seems to have spilled out, or, instead, I seem to have carried something extra. Always too small or too much. Such a contradiction of imbalance is between words and emotions. From the poet's life counseling book, "My Life Guide."
