Day #2: DBSK - Evergreen



...

Few years ago, my parents came back to the States bringing a gift from my old time friend. She wrote me a letter rambling about all the random things in her mind: bad and good times, But sometimes in the randomness, we spilled out our deepest thoughts and feelings. Idk if people usually do that. It's like parts of us were scared of the real world waiting ahead. We found our steps trembling on the road we aimlessly traveled. So we expressed it through random jokes to make it less scaryreal, and at the same time, to accept it.
She wrote sth about the lyric Evergreen. My favorite line is 다시는 나의 곁에서 눈물 흘리지 않도록"So you will never cry again by my side." This song wasnt much special when I first heard it. But the more i listened the more it grew on me. It reminded me of how much time passed by and how fast things changed.
But if we could preserve something till the very end...

I cried for a good hour reading her letter. I felt like I spent years putting a huge puzzle together and dropped it all at one. I neither knew where I was nor where to start again. It was like all the good and dearest memories slipped through my fingers. I felt lost, stuck between two places, one I for sure wasn't a part of, the other one I no longer belonged to. During that time, all I had was memories.

Evergreen,
persistence,
the long lasting,
timeless.
