#about the street where we won’t meet
There is a street in my mind, where an often underappreciated singer sings about a love that stands just across the street. Forever they stand there, one trying make up combinations of words, variations of beautiful verses – not to win her heart, but to beg the world to keep her beautiful memory alive. Forever her image hovers and floats above the ground, but he is too faraway to notice.
Well the first time that I saw her
Standing in the middle of the road
Eyes as bright as Christmas lights
Wearing someone else’s clothes
I did my best to ignore her
But ignoring my best pretty soon
- "Words", Passenger
I’m opening my eyes
I see you
I shake my hands
So your image scatters
No matter how much I do that
How often I do that
Still, in front of me
You are smiling
- "Opening My Eyes", Zitten
And this is where my mind is stuck. Not at the numerous meetings leading to heartbreak, not at the years that passed too slowly, not at the will to live and smile that grew weary too fast, not at the silent ending that is more serene than happy.
My mind is stuck at the point where I am stuck in my life.
Even tomorrow I will see you Even tomorrow, I will hear you Even tomorrow, everything will be the same as today -"Time Spent Walking Through Memories", Nell
I want to remain I want to dream more … I’m just walking and walking, among this darkness My happy times asked me this question You, are you really okay, it asked me Oh no -"Awake", Jin (BTS)
There are roads that I cannot cross and always at the other end stands someone or something too beautiful to be ignored. There stands a poem I wish I had written, there stands an alien undecipherable tear that I wish I could understand. There is a torn down building that feels like a home that I should yearn for. There is a pile of love letters that I never got to read. There is horde of faces I couldn’t trust, but I wished to. There is everything I could have been, if I only had the courage to be selfish.
You were so precious Countless memories that you placed In all of those moments In all of those times You were always beautiful -"Opening My Eyes", Zitten
Even within some stranger’s figure passing on the street Even above the leaves riding the wind with a lonely dance Even within the air brushing past my cheeks on some evening In everything I see, hear and feel You are there Yeah, and how are you? … Even on that big empty chair left on the side of the street Even in the glass I thoughtlessly filled to drink some water Even within the mirror I face to look at myself Even within the music secretly sitting in deeper from the edge of my ear You are there -"Time Spent Walking through Memories", Nell
The last thing you taught me Is that there are types of happiness that don’t come back -"Lemon", Kenshi Yonezu
And besides, you probably don’t know how much I was saved by you -"Melancholy Kitchen", Kenshi Yonezu
This is what my world is made of, this what this world is to me. Something I feel and love with all my heart, with every drop of my existence. Yet something that is too far away, only because my feet are glued to this piece of land. Because I want to stay here far enough to not ruin anything so good.
Oh moon, My moon I’m not trying to embrace you I know that you are too immense To fit into my arms … Oh moon, My moon I’m not trying to own you The reason why you’re so dazzling to me Is because I am a pitch-black night -"Dear Moon", JeHwi
Letting it go Seeing your light Living my life away from you Being your light Far from you -"Aurora", Savina & Drones
There is a street in my mind where the lover and the loved are always separated. Here they stay forever in each other’s sight. On that street love never ends, love never ask for practicality, never gets hurt nor does it get tired of waiting. Here the love doesn’t ask for approval of this world. Here no one changes. My feelings, here, are not something to be hidden away, or to be lied about. Here my feelings, my attachment is not a nuisance, but the only meaning that I need to live.
Since then, when I think of you —Someone I loved More than I ever thought— My breath stops -"Lemon", Kenshi Yonezu
But if i could I would love To be the light Just the light That shines upon you -"End Roll", Androp
Memories that spill down Words that endlessly come up How can I hold you back? I’ll be here I’ll be here -"Opening My Eyes", Zitten
All the angels who know pain Flying on damaged wings through the night Every time I'm thinking about love Every time I'm thinking about love I don't wanna listen to just happy songs I'll face my loneliness, color my life -"Lights", BTS
Inside my blue dream I want to hold you -"Blue Side", J-Hope (BTS)
Maybe I'm a dreamer Or maybe I'm just fallen' apart I put it all on the table for you to see That you and I, that's what we are -"Waiting For You", Grizfolk
it rains in my heart
