it was a way to let it all go;
simply opening the door
and taking one step after another
leaving all of the junks behind.
holding onto nothing
but a key and a phone
I let myself go
out into the world
pastel blue sky imbued in feather clouds
greeted me like an ocean
I saw and I knew:
this is the world I live in.
오직 모든 것들을 내려놓고
내 골방을 빠져나온 후에야,
내 자신을 해방시키고 난 후에야,
나는 비로소 세상을 보았다.
세상을 본 나는 그래서야 깨달았다.
‘내가 이 세상에 살고 있구나’ 라고.
