the love of family is soft as silk
yet stronger than diamond
gentle like a soft spring breeze
but can withstand cold blizzard of winter
so rejoice while you can
celebrate each moment together
let there be love.
let there be appreciation.

Parenting
I sometimes imagine what it would be like to have myself as a kid;
a young kid, who depends on me,
who asks me for stuffs that I don’t want to buy,
and who rebels against what I believe in.
maybe I’ll get upset,
maybe I’ll try to persuade the kid,
or maybe I’ll try to manipulate the kid.
so when I see my own parent
be so real with me,
be so honest with me,
and be so pure-minded with me,
my fists melt in gratitude,
my head bows in humbleness,
and my heart swells in love.
It is true:
I am grateful for my parents.

Labor
let me find meaningfulness in my work.
let me find my purpose in a human society.
let me find love in daily tasks.
let me find humbleness in my presentation.
let me find joy in diligence and resilience.
let me find gratitude for my opportunity.

Wish
wherever you are, I wish you love.
smile when you want to smile,
run freely when you want to run.
I wish you peace in mind and heart.
I hope there is a shade of tree leaves
to release you from unforgiving heat.
wherever you are, I wish you love.

Timing
allow me to rise to the challenges I must face
allow me to protect those that I cherish
allow me the wisdom to discern principles
allow me the intellect to discover solutions
allow me the strength to build a change
allow me to love in every moment

Thanks
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

Promise
let’s promise this
even if we drift apart
let’s love.
love all things in the world.
the blue, grey, purple, orange, red sky
the ever-fleeting golden wings of luck
the unquenchable thirst to connect
let us love them all.
yes, it could get boring
yea, it could be painful
but let’s promise this:
let’s love.

Scene 1
가을의 향기가 났다.
돈은 한푼 없고 쓸데없이
고급진 커피향에 찌든 어느날
내 검은 자켓 소매를 붙잡히고
클래식한 붉은 벽돌의 한 동내의
눈부신 노을과 반항기의 장난들
멋도 모르고 마냥 좋았던 미소
고요한 순간 느끼던 그림자의 존재함
지금은 꿈과 같은 그 순간이
잠시 코끝을 스쳐갔다.
there was a scent of the autumn
a penniless, pitifully soaked in luxurious
coffee aroma, that one day
dragged by the sleeve of my black jacket
that classic brown bricked street’s
blinding sunset and a little rebel’s tricks
smiles that I cluelessly loved so much
presence of shadow sensed in silence
those moments that now feel like a dream
momentarily breezed by under my nose.

Dream
some say, “don’t think about the past”
“you’ll blind yourself to its light
and won’t take a step towards future”
but I’d say, “sing the past”
“sing of its youth, the beauty, the joy,
the tears, the smiles, and the light”
for if you sing enough of its love,
maybe you will move on
maybe you will evolve
maybe you will love again
so, sing the past
embrace the love it sends
spread the love it gifted you
