I am so incredibly proud of Seonghwa for getting the chance to publish his poetry! And so inspired by his courage to share his innermost vulnerable feelings. His honesty and openness about his struggles fascinate me... I look at him so genuine and sincere and it shocks me because I know I do not have the courage to be so open with my feelings, and so determined to let my voice help other people feel less alone. But he's doing it. He took his expression of pain and struggle and is hoping that it will help someone find peace in a dark night.
It's just amazing, he is so brave and so talented and so beautiful, inside and out, and I am in constant awe of him. How can such a person exist? So gentle and kind and compassionate? He has so many thoughts, and selfishly, I want to hear all of them. I hope he shares many more of his poems with us. He has such a beautiful, and raw way of showing how he feels, and despite the ache in his words there's also so much hope and I think that's what makes him so incredible. He perseveres, works hard, endures, and believes his efforts will take him somewhere. He doesn't give up no matter how hard it gets, and I will always love him for that.
