Dear hide-sama

I have known X for a century. However, I did not pay much attention on the band members. I just listened to those beautiful songs. Moreover, the way to follow your personal life was quite difficult during that day (no youtube). The latest news about you that I remembered was X disband and your death...and that's it..Until recently, I knew about X reunion and world tour concert. At that moment, it seem like a retrospect with the X's good old music. I searched the songs on youtube for X Japan live concert. I saw you in the video. I feel like I fall in love with the guitarist with pink hair. He was so energetic, playful and cute. Especially, your smile, it soft and tender. Then I recognize you passed away. How sad! After that, I study your life, your personal works and etc. I can say that I just love you. You are very talented. You are also a kind and sensitive person. People around you love you so much. I wonder when I can see you again. I hope someday after life I will see you when I go to stay with you in the same place. We might have a chance to know or to talk to each other..at that place.. I miss you hide-sama

I haven't known about you for very long to be honest, but the moment I saw you I got attatched to you hide-sama. It felt like my heart had broken in two when I realized what a beautiful, talented, amazing person you were and that you had to leave this world when you were so young. Your music reached out to people, saved them. You were so special and so loved and you always will be. I wonder where you are now and I wonder what your doing? with any luck, when the time comes for me to leave this place too, i'll meet you where ever you are. I'm so grateful that you lived. You were the cutest man ever. Now you will be 33 and beautiful forever. Love you and miss you hide! you'll always have a big part of my heart! *~endless rain, fall on my heart, kokoro no kizu ni. let me forget all of the hate, all of the sadness<3 ~* xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
