come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
from the shadows,
I started to see a breaking of darkness,
and through its crevasse,
a glimpse of warm, soft light.
as my heart beamed with gratitude,
I marveled at all things as they are.
then I bowed my head, not with a defeat,
but with a humble heart
to carry on.

I laughed, because it was so sad;
I don’t know how else to deal with it.
bone-crashing depression is an oxymoron
but it hurts real bad, so you laugh to lift it up
it’s truly funny sometimes, how the life goes.
I am just grateful I can laugh with people I love.
I am humbled by their openness to accept my jokes.
that’s where I find the courage
to look forward to the future unknown.

it’s yet another fresh start,
full of unknowns.
a whirlpool of butterflies in the heart,
ghosts of olden memories groans.
true to it all along
the unconscious calling
atoned for deeds gone wrong
now rising to face challenges
I pray this path will be the way
the way of becoming
what is true to all that is laid
the road to the living
새로운 시작을 맞이한다.
초심을 잃지 아니하며
이 길이 먼 훗날
떳떳한 길이 되길 바라며

love you five warms my heart
I now my head out of meekness
for I feel the mountains under my feet
and ocean within my reach
just by your simple gesture of gratitude
I know it is one out of galaxy we collide
so I humbly wish our paths will conjoin again one day
