he always adored the nightsky. he said he loved looking at the stars at a cloudless night. he told me he loved seeing grey clouds clustered in a messy yet fascinating fashion. he loved the moon and how it shines its moonlight shyly behind clouds.

he loved everything about the nightsky.

everything.

he looked me in the eye one beautiful night and said with nothing but sincerity, "i wonder if i can be a star, too."

i smiled and said with assurance, "i know you will be. someday."

"i envy you."

what made you said that? i thought.

"i think you were once part of the nightsky, too, luna."

i turned to your direction and i was quickly in awe. what are you talking about? i think you are part of the nightsky.

the moon lit you in a manner that i cannot comprehend. you were simply magnificent. your hair was slightly swaying to the breeze of the night. your eyes were shining brighter than the stars as if it were challenging them. the way your mouth was slightly open because of your incomprehensible wonder. everything was just too good to be true that night.

i don't know the better or the right words to explain what i saw in you as i'm not as clever as you are. but i know i was right when i say that i can spend the whole night just looking at you.

looking at you while you are adoring the nightsky.

it's okay. it's enough for me.

even if it's not me you're adoring.

it's okay, namjoon.
