공기가 숨을 쉬고 이슬이 반짝였을 때
정원에 꽃봉오리가 피어날 때도
그것도... 그대 생각나게 했어요.
When the sky smiled
And the morning blushed
When the air breathed
And the dew glimmered
The bud in my garden blossomed anew
And that too... reminded me of You.

Stay with your heart
When the walls are closing in on you
And the only door out is pitch-black...
Would you stay
Or would you take the path out?
What if the walls stop moving eventually?
What if there's a depthless pit just outside the door?
Would you stay
Or would you take the path out?
What if you traverse the deep trench
And there's a pretty garden beyond those depths
Where there's golden air soaked with the sunrays
And the fragrant breeze is colored
In hues of the beautiful flowers...
Can you leave the room
If there was a possibility of the garden?
Yes, there might be an endless stretch of trenches
And immeasurable depths
Where there's no concept of time or space
Yes, there might be the rumblings of the walls
And the pressure well enough to crush a soul
There's a possible garden beyond the dark
But it just might be too good to be true
Whatever you choose
Wherever you stay
Or whichever paths you explore
Stay... With your heart
It may bleed but it will heal too
Stay with you, just once more
For there is a light breathing in there
There's a beacon forming
That shows the path
The journey is still there
Stay with your heart
Just one more step
When you can smell the dawn
Bathed in hopes and dreams
It will shine on you with the smile of sunflowers
Just stay once more
Stay with your heart

That is also me
That no one knows
The one with mystic intricacies
And an equivalent framework
As any other me
But this has been special
In ways that
I never really could apprehend
That is also me
That knows the shades of the cosmos
And believes in every dust
For that is what stars are made of
And moons and stones and home
Yes there's something beautiful
And vivaciously precious
In every granule that that sees
That is also me
That chooses the light
And also glorifies the night
For there's an enigma that each beholds
And thousands of microcosmos
That breathes life and everything glows
There's a universe and many such more
That flavours every dream with adore
Yes, that is also me
That's so hopelessly romantic
That finds hope and beauty in everything I see

Like An Epiphany
When every moment
Feels like an epiphany
When every breath of air feels extremely cold
As if it is hellbent to pierce your lungs
And reach your heart
To see if it cracks yet again
To see if the blood rushes
To heal it once more
Or give up and finally freeze
There are days like that
When every moment
Feels like an epiphany
When you realize the abyss from before
Is struggling to get a new meaning
One where nothingness never ceases
But was there anything to begin with
For there can be nothing
Only when there ever was something
And everything feels like a myth once more
There are days like that
When every moment
Feels like an epiphany
When communication is just an obligated model
Its roots rooted on the root of i2
For it is nothing
More than drab oblivion
If not sparked by you
For there never really was a language or literature
And a mere void had more elaborated meaning
There are days like that
When every moment
Feels like an epiphany
