From: Yang Jungwon

My parents fought again,

and my sister blames me for it.

I wished this could be over now.

And though I don't want to die in sorrow,

I just wished to end things soon.

I don't want to die,

Yet I also don't want to live.

I was torn, again.

My mind,

it is filled with the cacophony of all the problems bestowed to me.

I sat at the playground where I saw you,

yet even my surroundings looked hopeless.

Dead leaves on the ground,

dark clouds,

dim lights,

a grey tone.

Everything felt solemn and melancholic,

but perhaps,

this is just how I always used to view everything.

Still,

I did not expect that in the midst of the darkest clouds,

you came like an angel.

And my heart burned.

You are the light,

you are my light.

My heart, it beats for you.

My mind, it's filled with you.

I'm still here because of you.

From: Cho Sunhee

To talk to you is a privilege I am glad to have.

To listen to your problems and ease them is an ability I'm thankful for having.

and to know what's on your mind, is a treasure I hold unto.

With me, your secrets will be kept safe.

And you asked me why,

I simply answered:

"I love listening to people's struggles,

because it allows me to feel sympathy...

when I could no longer feel it for myself."

and I know you felt that,

because we are one soul.

You are the reason for my being,

and I knew it the moment I looked into your eyes.

In the darkness,

everything suddenly lit up when I met you.
