Aftermath

I do apologize
for my sleep deprived ramblings
I needed an outlet,
but I went tidbit too far
I am grateful for your kind heart
and share your earnest thoughts and tips
Thank you for sharing your time
your presence has been felt,
and I do not treat it lightly.
Should you require a pair of ears
that will open to your own outlet
I promise, mine are booked for your needs.
Now that my eyes are clear,
I see how kind you were.
I am grateful for unprompted generosity
and will repay in kind.
I hope the night is treating you well
and the morning greets you warmly.

Embrace

sitting here in my chair
reading your notifications
as jazz music flows in earbuds
in this silent dark night
I start noticing
tiny little bits of light
building in my chest
I realized it was a reflection
of light from everywhere
it is still a dark night
and I embraced all of these light
with gratitude
and a vow to pay it forward

Gratitude

I did not know I’d be here 5 years ago
I had felt as though I was completely lost
lost in ocean as dark storm raged on
I only had a life vest to hold onto

who would have known it would be seen by others
who would have known I’d be boarded
onto this new world, world so bright
as I take one more step, I pray to pay my gratitude

오직 감사함만이 있을 뿐.

Keyboard

dear keyboard, thanks for bearing with my incessant keystrokes.
it’s not that I have a bad feeling towards you.
it’s just that I have a deadline that is too close for my health.
Rather, I am grateful for your faithful service.
We’ve actually made a great work together, you know.
I look forward to getting more of those done with you.
I’ll also make sure to clean up the dusts under each of your key.
See you tomorrow.

Hi

hi it’s good to see you again
it’s unfortunate to meet in this moment
too coincidental and easily mistakable
but I say the truth plainly: nothing happened.
if you want to leave, feel free to.
of course I will miss you
but if it is not meant to be, let it be
perhaps it’s a price I pay for one of past sins
it is an honor to have met you
you’ve inspired me with your brilliance and charisma found in leader of truth
still,
it is my hope to see you again.
if ever, will I get a chance, I’ll hold onto it as dearly as I can
for it means more than ‘un million de bagels’
parce que it is Spring, after all.
