come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
remember, “ash to ash”
who knows what tomorrow brings
today, it’s a good day to be alive
believe in yourself
stay close to what you know to be true
break down all those of gold, if it is not true
live every second in a minute
appreciate principles, humbleness, hunger
rise again when you fall
스스로를 믿어
쓰러져도 일어나
진실된 것들을 찾고
맞다고 생각하는 길을 찾고
용기를 갖어

If you don’t have a place to call a home,
write. writing will become your dome
world of your own,
it will be your a companion,
throne, may it not become.
son, you’ll know on day one
you were home all along.
만약, 집이라 부를 곳이 없다면
글을 적어라. 적는 것만이 너의 피난처일지니.
너만의 세계가 될 것이고
너만의 동반자가 될 것이지만
왕좌만이 되지 않길 바란다.
봐라, 언젠간 네가 깨닫는 날이 올 것이니.
너는 이미 집에 있다는 것을.

I want it all:
kick of adrenaline achieving daily goals,
thrill of kissing deadlines goodbyes
and flush of lush joy from music.
아무리 모두가 이해하지 못 한다 해도
나는 내 길을 걸어야 한다고 생각해.
이게 내 숙명이자 숙제인것 같아.
언젠가 한번 꾸었던 꿈을
지금 걷는 이 길에서 다시 볼 수 있길 바라.

dancing in the desert
scorching sun above
moisture quickly dissipating
and I don’t know
when the dance will end
때로는 격렬하게,
때로는 천천히 음미하며
사막 한가운데서 춤을 춘다.
이것의 결과가 곧 오리라 믿으며.

don’t look back,
it’s already burning
black smoke rising from ashes
there’s no way to take us back
이제는 쉬어도 괜찮지 않을까
지난 날들의 상처들을 끌어 안는 것도
스스로를 용서하지 못 하는 것도
이젠 잠시 내려 놓을 수 있지 않을까
조그마한 언덕에 앉아
조심스레 혼잣말을 속삭여 본다.

the black crow, fear, has arrived again.
hawking large black wings arrive one by one.
like shadow it is silent when it arrives.
even air feels colder. or have I imagined it?
familiar, though, it is.
a lonely path one must take to the world,
I wonder what will be at the end of this tunnel
may it be hope.
may it be hope.

when you decide to fly,
what you notice first is
darkness underneath your feet
telling you “I’ve been there, it’s all gonna work out”
isn’t going to sound much help
ease that brewing cold anxiety
but look into my eyes:
I show you that I lived through my fair share
what yours will be, let it be the world to show you
brother, dream.
dream big.
big enough to rule this fear.
I believe in you.

may the love you feel limitless
this ephemeral, biological, and transcendental
state of existence: let it be limitless.
limitless of what it can show you
limitless on how it can let you grow
limitless on what it can do for you
may the love you feel limitless

some view life as an art,
some view life as a war.
While there is time to strike,
I propose gearing up;
prepare for a trip into the fray
or to build a work yet to be made
the day is yet too young to see the dark
let us rise to our chances for our fate

scenery before my eyes
blossoms into different shapes
heights, color, and, yes, scents.
with just a flick of a finger
with a grave weight.
Mind you, the weight of this act.
Let alone the sceneries,
mountains, oceans, and people,
thousands of millions of people
were passed by in a blink of an eye.
Yet remember;
remember regardless of this change.
the soft, unbreakable part of you
that you left behind.
also, remember your vow you made
in a blissful, youthful ignorance
to achieve what you’ve promised.
those bold promises you made
don’t let it go awashed into shade.
and lastly,
remember the love.
remember to love.
