Eyes Off Of You

It was like destiny when we first saw each other.
In the midst of the confusing lights and darkness
I saw your face with the brightest smile,
Couldn't help but stare and stare;
They had to nudge me awake,
But I couldn't take my eyes off of you.


You were like a painting in the wind.
I wanted to jump just so I could catch you.
Protect you, keep you in my embrace
Hide this precious gem from the world.
Crush you, and have you all to myself.
Have no one snatch you away.

잘자요, 에기야 / Sleep Well

I keep thinking we'll meet each other soon.
Sometimes, I wonder why I feel so,
But when people echoes
This deep secret of me,
I feel like a door will open soon.
You and I, the night we've been waiting for.
Too much love, not enough--
This has always been our lot.


The night air stirs as I wonder in the dark.
Will you recognize me?
Will I recognize you?
When we have never met before.
We haven't talked.
There's nothing of each other that we know.
Maybe a little--what I want you to be;
And what you expect of me.

When I Am Afraid

Pushed to a corner, unsure of things;
Surrounded by darkness
Of my thoughts
Of my heart
Of my uncertainties
I hear a sudden whisper reminding me:
"I am here."


A song bursts forth from inside
Of my wandering heart:
"When I am afraid
I will trust in You.
When I am afraid
I will trust in You."
And then You give me peace
As You always do.

Remind Me Once Again

If I forget in twenty years
The way you looked when you
Were twenty-seven, your eyes
Full of life and wonderings
Remind me once again.

If I forget, the way you walked
The way you talked, the way you laughed
At my silly jokes and lame pranks;
How your face light up when you smile--
Remind me once again.

Figment

The street was dark, shadows dancing to and fro,
Strong winds propelling me to walk faster.
Faster. The cold seeping into my bones.
Eager for the warmth of my own room.

Suddenly, a hand on my shoulder
Stopped me in my single-minded goal.
Startled, I choked on my scream and froze
For a second. Until you spoke.

"Where are you going on a rush?"
You asked while rubbing my cold hands.
Shaking, I answered:
"Home. It's too cold. I just want to go home."
