who cares what others will see me as
let the truth be out in the world
and allow what may happen, happen.
I believe this is the right move.
I believe we are headed the right way.

History
as yellow sunlight hit the white building,
I sensed the world was a little softer
in spite of the self-important talk of passerby
I felt the world turning slower
but is this my world?
beyond what words can describe,
I can sense what feels to be true.
the moment I see, hear, and say the word
I am engulfed back into my world
one that I know to be true,
one that I yearn for all this time.
as I sail through uncharted territory
I stare at the stars, hopeful it will guide me.
hopeful that the truth lies beyond the horizon.

Interpretation
is the silence opportunity for deeper meaning
or is it a trap of an infinite loop of searching?
is speed of truth limited by speed of light?
is there limit to combinations of feeling right?
so many questions to search for the truth
so are interpretations to be made prude
두 눈 뜨고 공허한 공간을 바라 보아도
두 귀를 쫑긋 세워 고요함을 담아도
진실이 과연 가까이 있는가
질문을 넌지시 던져 본다

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.

Serenity
when a sweet scent of spring
hit my cheeks and disapeared
I froze, numbed by the shock so sudden
then I recalled the softness hidden
under layers of kind gestures
revealing serene and honorable overture
a beginning of an adventure
a courageous journey into brighter future

Slow Down
slow down a little
rest your soul with mettle
one day the storm will settle
Spring with come with sunflower petals
glimpse down at what lies deeper
into the earth with stories so simple
Truth may not be so brittle nor sparkle
but oh so serene it is to the keeper

Wish
when staring at the mirror,
try not to avert your eyes
from the eyes that implore you.
be honest.
speak the words that are
as real as the pain of living each day
there are just too many fools
who are drunk on easiness & cheapness
of empty words
but words that are as real as the pain
will remember you.

Apologies
Apologies.
I must go where I’ve set my eyes on
carousel around the paradox
had been a joyride while it lasted.
I remember my roots.
I remember my promises.
I remember my comrades.
I remember my angels.
Apologies.
But I must go where I’ve set my eyes on
Pushing all that blocks my path
Keeping truth in my heart.
