come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
There is still a reason to reach out.
We wove our stories together,
dark green and golden vines branching out
and digging deeper into the core.
Clouds and fogs may mesmerize your view,
but in your heart, you will know which path to take.
Breath softly. Tread lightly. Shine brightly.

The warmth that I felt then
Still lasts to this day.
Thank you for your smile
which filled my soul with a soft warmth.
I forgot about it for awhile,
but your warmth has been with me after all this time.

I guess this is the end.
The wind in the hair,
the soft breathing of sunset,
the tight lips that arched
into a bittersweet smile.
It’s alright, kid.
Don’t worry about it.
I enjoyed this ride.
Go on, go on.
I am alright.
March on, on you go.
It’s going to be alright.

망설이다가 걷기 시작했다.
딱히 할게 없었지만 멈춰있기 싫었다.
걷다 보니 가을 공기가 맑다는걸 알았다.
태양빛이 밝았다.
머릿카락을 스치는 나뭇가지들을 비추고
길을 비추는 그 빛이 좋았다.
미소를 지어 보았다.
따뜻한 햇살이, 맑은 하늘이, 아름다운 풍경이
미소를 짓는듯 하였다.
혼자가 아니라는걸 기억하게 주는 이 순간이
감사했다.

Hey, did you notice
That this person smiled at you today?
Did you know this person cared for you?
Did you know this person considers you a friend?
Did you know they are all cheering for you?
It’s okay to trip over.
Let’s try it again!
We are going to make this right.

listen to its songs
won’t you give it a try too?
it will be a dream for long
two for two.
wonderful too.

i don’t know you,
but if I could offer you one thing,
I would give you my smile.
I can’t feel what you are feeling now
but I hope this smile will give you warmth,
like a flash of sunlight from a car in the street.
I wish you well.

I don’t know why
but you’ve been in my mind
like a sweet blue sky
shining in my eyes
I am trying to keep my mind
from reaching that high
but like a cotton candy that fly
high into summer sky
my eyes open too wide
with your smile.

remember the difficult times;
appreciate the lessons it gave you.
remember the star in the dark sky;
it still shines brightly within you.
hold on to your iron principles
and smile with the lightness of the sky

if you feel the boiling anger
in every fiber of your muscle
smile. and forget about them all.
let’s instead stay curious
a solution to this complicated problem
may lie just in front of our eyes
if we can just have a laugh
and look at it again.
