Maybe this fall ended the hot summer The grounds slushy wet with rain and dew All the trees slowly growing bare and bald Maybe the roads are strewn with leaves Each fallen in one of hue of the plethora With a myriad of shades in itself
So are we...
Things are changing around
Yet we came to exist in one broad shade
With a huge range of specifics
That all contributed to who we are
And that itself varying between people
Ever changing even to an individual... The trees are losing their covers We're grabbing ours To endure everything that is to come
And we do it too...
When we lose a part of ourselves
At any point of time
We turn to anything for help
Unable to face the cold winter
Whilst being bare and bald
Indeed... we are no evergreen...
We aren't built to withstand it all, unchanging
You were just another leaf...
One that fell off a tree in a completely different forest
Alike got carried by the elements
To places with no resemblance The night sky is cloudy The occasional tear dripping down From dark cloud on a dark sky, to the dark ground Some bright solo eyes blink A frequent twinkle Uncoordinated but yet in harmony Directing an Orchestra with the wave of a wand Such imaginary waves Gives those solo sky gems a new story They form groups They makes a picture They tell a story
Yet somehow, the dots we were
Got connected by some imaginary streaks
And after that I stopped feeling
Like a lonely, discarded and unnecessary dot
And I felt like a part of something special
Moving on was forward and there was light
Not just at the end of the tunnel
But also from within The autum day and night The sun that rises must set Even if you despise the dark The sun that sets here is still rising elsewhere The moon, with the sun's light Tries to help substitute
Even though we're similar, we're far apart
There will be a time when this imaginary line will fade to dust
And the leaf you are, will become humus
But that light you've given
I'll carry on
I'll take it all and do as you've done for me "저 수많은 별을 맞기 위해 난 떨어졌던가"
"You've shown me I have reasons,
I should love myself"

I wrote this on my main with all that I felt... I still feel it... same warmth...
It was the realization that was my first mark of healing...
