dear bangtan,

thank you

i'm so glad i found you.

well, now that i think back on it, you found us, didn't you?

you found each and everyone of us.

you found the lost souls, the broken hearts in us, the dull eyes

and you sparkled.

you shone so brightly it made us want to shine too.

and no matter where we stray,

you'll always be waiting.

and if we ever get lost again,

you'll be there.

you'll have your lights creating a path for us to follow,

back home, to where you are.

our safe place.

and maybe, just maybe, we can show you

just how impossibly much you matter.

because, as long as the light shines in this world,

bangtan,

you,

stay alive.

welcoming us into your open arms,

with warm eyes,

and soft eyes,

and a gentle touch,

and a tender place in your heart.

just,

for,

us.
