오늘은 왠지 힘들고 지쳐
for some reason i’m worn out and tired
베개를 끌어안은 채 혼자 방안에 남아
remaining alone in my room, hugging a pillow

for some reasons , today feels so exhausting and tiring .

i opened my eyes and look around . another day , another day , i muttered . another day full with unnecessary things . another day full with smiles , laughs that i am not even sure the genuineness of it .

i lay down with my hands off , i wonder . is this really happening ? is this really me ? i touched my face . yes , this is me . trapped in this body of mine .

전화길 만지작거리는 나의 마음이
touching my phone, my heart is
웬지 오늘따라 외로운거죠
for some reason lonely today

loneliness spreads in the blink of eye , wrapping around me tight and won't let go . empty , numb , blank . silent distress echoes in the little heart . where am i ? let me go .

갑자기 울린 전화에 놀라
frightened by the sudden ringing of my phone
밥 먹었는지 걱정하는 엄마 목소리가
my mother’s worried call asking me if i’ve eaten

as i hear your voice , that angel face of yours appears on mind .

" mom , loneliness won't let go of me . help me , mom . " screamed my little heart .

instead , a cheery , bubbly voice appears and answered your question . who are you ? can it be , you are me ?

귀찮게 들렸던 그 말이 오늘은 다른걸
those normally annoying words are different today
잊고 있었던 약속들이 떠올라요
those forgotten promises are being remembered.

can i stand on my own ? without mom ? will i ? or can i ? how can i continue living ? when i go to that place , can i live on ? will i breathe there ? can i breathe there ? but , does breathing matters when the sole reason you breath is gone ?

마음이 예쁜 사람이 될게요
I’ll become a person with a beautiful heart
남을 먼저 생각하는 사람 될게요
become a person who is selfless
엄마의 사랑의 바램들을 지켜갈게요
i’ll protect the expectations from mother’s love
나와 꿈을 함께 나누던 내 머릴 빗겨주던 엄마가 생각나
i think of mother who used to share my dreams and brush my hair

i still don't own a beautiful heart , mom . i have a lot of greed . can you follow me to the new place i'm going ? i don't want to live here anymore . mom , please follow me . that is my greed .

i don't have the guts . i don't have the strength . i just don't get it . does years of breathing on Earth means being matured ? and does being matured means being rebellious ? does being rebellious will truly frees you from uncertainty ?

어떡하죠 아직 작은 내 맘이
what do I do, my yet small heart

what is so great about growing up ? worries about unknown future , broken friendship that can't be cured , misleading rumors that hurts , negative thoughts lingering in mind , annoying organisms all around .

엄마의 손을 놓으면 혼자 잘할 수 있을지
will it do well without holding mothers hand

i won't do well in that new place . i know it . i know the instance i decided to go . but , i need to go . i'm sick and tired of everything .

아직 부족한 것 같아 난 두려운 걸요
i am weary because I still lack so much

mom , don't follow me . even if you want to . i am going far away from here . from this suffocating prison created by mind of mine . that place is only for people like me . people who had lost their wings and can't continue to fly .

지혜로운 엄마의 딸 될게요 나에게 용기를 줘
i’ll become a wise mother’s daughter, give me the strength/confidence
어딜가도 자랑스런 딸이 될게요
i’ll become a praiseworthy daughter no matter where I go

that was my promise to you . i can't fulfill it , mom . i lost my wings . those wings were stole by loneliness . i begged for my wings . he glares at me with his fury eyes and wraps around me tighter . loneliness , he is .

한없이 보여준 사랑만큼 따스한 맘을 가질게요
I’ll become a heart that is warm as the unconditional love you’ve shown me
수줍어 자주 표현 못했죠
I was shy and couldnt often express,

the reason i breathe for years . i will stop breathing now . i can't go further . even your unconditional love can't stop loneliness . i fall into his trap and now he got me .

엄마 정말로 사랑해요
that mother, i really love you.

and that i am sorry . goodbye , mom .

to be , or not to be , is the real question .

and as i close my eyes for the last time , loneliness took me to a new world . i can feel my heart slowly stops beating . loneliness , where are you taking me ?


kay , me being random . what do you think ? i swear i'm a failure in writing one-shot . OTL .
