Precious

Precious

A Poem by 송지석 / Ji-Suk

In my childhood when I especially reserved
I feel like I remember nothing special
Even when I get depressed again 
I don't have anyone to call

In university when I thought I was doing so well
I feel like I didn't have anyone to lean on
Even when I get exhausted again
I don't have anyone to call

Where're my golden days?
I spent a lot of time alone
Again I lost my mind 
And entered the darkness 

In my diary that I feel like I'm still young 
Honestly, I'm not sure that I'm still young at 23 
I'm not sure it's good
I'm not sure it's precious 
The things I've lost like a fool 
Will be all forgotten

In my diary that I feel like I'm still young 
Honestly, the world is a little unfair as I learn about it
Now, it's confusing
I complain again
When there's no one to listen to me
In this studio where I live

The things that I tried to do don't work as I wanted 
What do I do?
When I look around
Everyone is looking at me
Why didn't I understand you?
I did it for our good.
Even though I learn a lot about a lot 
I still don't know love 

In my diary that I feel like I'm still young 
Honestly, I'm not sure that I'm still young at 23 
I'm not sure it's good
I'm not sure it's precious 
The things I've lost like a fool 
Will be all forgotten

In my diary that I feel like I'm still young 
Honestly, the world is a little unfair as I learn about it
Now, it's confusing
I complain again
When there's no one to listen to me
In this studio where I live

Time doesn't stop
If something happens again
I don't want to regret 
For doing nothing and just hesitating

In my diary that I feel like I'm still young 
Honestly, I'm not sure that I'm still young at 23 
Good memories
Precious memories
Not to lose them like a fool
I want to just smile

In my diary that I feel like I'm still young 
But the world is a little interesting as I learn more
Even if the laundry gets wet many times from the rain
It will dry again
No matter how it will flow
In this studio where I live

Growing older. We can't stop and I believe we need to hold to our hope and dreams. I liked the honest voice in the poem. Real life situation and thoughts. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Thanks very much!
In the first line in the fourth, fifth, seventh, eighth, tenth, and eleventh stanzas, I think you meant diary instead of dairy
But the poem is really well written besides that, good job! :)
