➵ min yoongiㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤit was the second time i saw you after we met.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤyou were walking, with your head down and your hair covering the sides of your face. your small hands were in the pockets of your large hoodie, a different one than the one you wore when we met.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤi was walking as well, and we both rode the train.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤyou didn't notice, eunji, but people were starting to notice you.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤthey noticed your bloodshot eyes.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤbut they didn't notice the sorrow in them like i do.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤthey probably thought you were high on drugs.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤno, eunji, you weren't high on drugs.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤyou were high on despair.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤweirdly enough, we both got off at the same station.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤyou finally looked up, taking in the surroundings around you.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤyou didn't notice me, and it was okay.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤwe both walked out of the train station, and you walked the other way.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤyou see, eunji, the side of the city where we live in is ugly.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤyou made it seem less ugly, though.
