They ask me how I find the words,
To express sadness, passion, or rage,
Words escape me if I try to think of what to say.
But when I am living the mundane,
Words seem to find me like a lost song,
Sung in a distance but never to be heard again.

How do I hold your hand forever?
How do I love you better?
How do I stop looking into your eyes with guilt
For this fortress of sadness I have built
And though these eyes seem to always cry
It doesn’t mean I am sad by your side

Here’s to the old soul,
Whose existence was sown before there was a beginning,
And wherever I may be going,
Brings along seeds and pieces of hearts she has broken.

Heels on cobblestones
Leading the rhythm of the night-time flair
Map on one hand ready for the unknown
While whiff of spices float about in the air
My tired eyes can’t help but stare
Ready to take a bite
Of the streets and the sights
Drawn by the red lanterns and lights
Make enticing the unfamiliar

Tiptoes. Dancing in tiptoes
Guessing emotions as we go
Figuring out this life so
Why don't we live like
We don't care if they like
What we are or are not
Striking out in our fight
To live

From mother to mother
I know what you go through
Those loud screams from tiny lungs
When you are giving it your all
But it is seems never enough
When you want a child to hold
And to celebrate their every victory
But life has other plans
So we hold them in our hearts silently

I should be used to the rains by now
The heavy clouds that dim my light
I hear the lullabies singin loud
With beating drums
Remind me of your love

With every beat of your heart that my heart hears
I see rainbows and i know that you’re near
Every song the wind sings, all of my fears
Float away

Is the world you created for us real?
A place to go when you can no longer feel
A place of welcome from an old friend
A place where happiness doesn’t end

Im too old to believe in magic
I've lived a life of pains and stories tragic
Heart's been broken, stories with sad endings
Another hurt when my heart's still mending

I was told I feel too much I was told I feel it all I was told when I take a pill I might not feel at all. I might not be sad anymore I might even stop crying alone I might take brave the world again I might even want to see some friends.

This is my first attempt to write something in Korean. It isn’t much but I wanted to write myself a reminder so I will never forget who I am. I am learning hangul so forgive me if there are grammatical errors.

Breakfast was a favorite thing to do, it always was a thing between me and you. Scrambled eggs and those green smoothies you hate, prepared with love so you drank it anyway.

Every day with you But every day without, wondering how it must feel To be wrapped around your arms. How warm are your hands when it holds on to mine. All the days pretending to look into your eyes.

Eternity is forever that is never enough, when I think about all the regretful things I have done. Forever is always that is on slow repeat, when I think about how I should be on my knees.

One foot after the other, slowly I walk over to you. One breath after another, slowly I breathe you in. One day after the other, I spend my days thinking of you.

Show me what happiness looks like to you. Is it cherry blossoms slowly opening up when spring comes? The smell of lavenders in the fields when you go for walks? When you go home at the end of the day and hear running footsteps down your steps

You say we are too young to be hesitating
So we run head on and full speed towards our dreams
Today is a different story though 
Today feels halfway to the end
