it is the time

you might slow down your speed but it didn't mean you stopped you might move silently behind the others but we never left, here for your consolation you might hide behind the new moon but now it's time for full buck moon i didn't know how dark your days were i didn't know how much tear down in those sleepless nights i didn't know how strong the fear controlled us insanity seemed get us high and higher but, waiting for you isn't something vain waiting for you is worth every single tear waiting for you taught a new lesson, patience rage, fear, pain... let them flame in hell and now it is the time you get a new crown, coronation day thank you for holding on this far welcome home, let's play with fire now

ᅳ

thank you for coming back home, hwang hyunjin. the troops never left you behind. let the new crown give you more power. let's play with fire with every STAY all around the world. dancing in festive mode like there's no tomorrow.

another day

one day the flowers bloom one day the winter storm hits one day it's as warm as fresh bake one day it's quiet as the rain pouring

gloomy again, smiling again laughing crying yelling hugging

today too, it's just another day will pass, has to pass if today feels not right, grab a hope tomorrow will be happier

it's gonna be another day for sure, everything goes worries, sadness, anger may the happiness cool them all down

바람처럼 (you, the wind)

as the time goes by you come and go as you please bring the joyful heat of summer, then come as the stormy winter blow a warm-chilly breeze of spring, then shake the autumn leaves

like how i cannot control the wind, i hate that i cannot stop you coming at me i hate that i love your summer and spring i hate that i still like your winter and autumn even if they hurt me even the part of me miss them, i hate it

the flowing wind passes by no matter it is warm or cold, it's just like you no matter it is gentle or disaster, it's just like you and i can't resist it

sea and desert

[lecafepapillon]

she was a swan

dancing alone at the lake dreaming about true love hoping for the better life

they said, “she's beautiful” “she's pure” “sadly... she's weird, losing her mind”

she heard, she knew everyone talked behind her whispered something that should've not been said

her bright self darkened her smile faded her steps stopped

she was a swan who wondered how was life not been trapped in the box

she flew away wherever her white delicate wings brought her searched for enchantment of being free

when the night comes

there's a part of a day when you stop for a while, breathing even if it's just the body

when the night comes, everything becomes so quiet but just like how yin yang is, others are awake

in this silent time of a day, everything becomes more sensitive even the slightest sound can be heard like how the voice inside my head

shut up no. shut. up. no. shut up! no!

the clock ticks the tok as having a deep conversation with my mind louder and faster my mind starts to race with the time

shut up no. shut up! no! shut. up. no. shut... up.... no... shut.... u....p n...o... shut... no.... . ... ... .. .

waves

i hear the sound of waves through my ears, right to left so comforting, so calming

like someone hugging me placing the hands on my back pat pat pat, little pats won't hurt

as you're standing beside me smiling, staring at the ocean deeply along with the dancing waves

i fall in love again
