Taste of Tears

Once, he said,
I won't let you go never.
I will be here with you forever 
Cheerful tears shed out of my eyes.
They flow into my heart, fill it with blessedness.
Tears, sweeter than sugar.

Once, he said,
I won't say those three words to you never.
I want to forget you forever.
Painful tears run out of my eyes.
They flow into my heart, break it into pieces.
Tears, more bitter than medicine.
