It's been raining these spring days incessantly,
No sunrise for so long,

My yearning heart rises each day.

A cold breeze whispers your name.

The day ascends on a great bluebirds wing.

Your sweet voice calms me,
That I carry into the twilight of rain beams,
And hold next to my ear.

You fill me with hope.
Your words dry my wet tears,

As my hand touches my neck,
It reminds me of your warm sunshine.

In the hushed day, I listen for the last drop of rain.

My shinning Princess; with sparkles in your eyes.
You inspire me,
To write words of love every day,

I love the way you hold me, kiss and love me,
Spending hours in my mind during the day,
and dreaming of you, through the night,

Always dreaming about you and me,
Walking along the ocean's shore,
Seeing shadows of life reflected in sandy dreams,

You are more cheerful than hearing dolphins sing,
Generous and calm as a light sea breeze,
That cools our Souls,

Your kind-hearted spirit brings,
Warmth and beauty to the world,
Like red and white roses blazing in May,

I make this promise to you,
I will always love you, in life and in Heaven,
Our Souls will, never part,

I'll love you, forever...

Copyright © 2018 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Looking at you,
Smiling behind dreams framed in glass,
Trying to hold feelings inside my heart.

You are most beautiful,
More beautiful than a sunrise,
On a snowy day.

Memories of you, hugging my heart,
Warming my Soul on these cold, lonely days,

Warm winds blowing, in dreams,
Sending your Spirit floating to me,
Chasing away the sad times;

Times I've missed holding you,
Holding you deep in love,
Never saying goodbye.

Dreaming---
Love standing in front of me,
I touch your fingertips.

Kneeling down in front of love,
Asking you,

My dream to marry me.

Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

You lying there,
Beauty, in a white dress,
Lying on a bed draped in white lace,

Please wake up my love,
Are you dreaming beautiful dreams?

Holding your hand,

I pray to God,
To feel your warmth,
And gentleness once again.

I love you

Wishing to give you happiness,
Take away the hurtfulness,
Desire to show you the beauty in our world,

Please wake up my Angel,
I miss you so much.

You are my inspiration,
You are the divine gift,
That saved my life.

Please wake up my beautiful love.

Oh my Love, my Love!
Oh Angel Love, Angel Love!
I must confess,

Love, how can I send my heart to you?
Love you will never see,
For we have been born decades apart,
A great sea and ocean of time separate our Souls,

I still believe (still believe),
Friendship! is possible,
Give me a sign,
Dance with me Love in my dreams one more time!

Oh my Love, my Love!
Oh you, beautiful you!
What can I do?

Don't you know that you're beautiful!
And I love looking at your image guarding my Soul.
Don't you know if it was possible,
I would travel back in time just to hold you,

Oh my Love, my Love!
Oh will, will I ever see you?
Do you miss me too?

Life is not fair,
Oh, will! Will our dreams come true?

Oh my Love, my Love!
What can I do?

Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Your amazing lips and kisses,
I'm hot with passion,
My Soul lusts for you every lonely night,

And when you touch me there,
I'll search for love no more,
You are my dear passion; you are my dream come true.

When you hold me close my passion, and we can't get any closer,
Making love all night long,
You make it easier for me when life gets hard.

I'm sleepy.
Please never tell me goodbye.
I love you! My princess.

My love, telling me goodbye is my nightmare.
You never letting me go, is my eternal wish.

Making love all night long is my never ending desire.
My dreams of loving you,
With passion makes it easier when life gets hard.

Love came too quickly,
With cotton clouds flying across a blue sky,

Love came warmly,
Laying on a carpeted floor,
With a fire burning in front of us,

Love came in silence,
With a touch,
A strong embrace,

Love came freely,
With no commitments,

Love came with tears,
Tears filling, wine glasses,

Love left,
With a kiss blown,
That could never reach my lips,

Love left too quickly,
With storm clouds,
Flying across, gray skies...

Is it human nature to be cruel to one another?
All evidence points to this being so.
I never asked for a thank you or even respect.

You are neither family or someone I love but
I admired very much.

I only asked that you, do your best.
Was it some test,
to repay kindness with heartlessness?

Or in your eyes,
Is kindness weakness,
only to be used and tossed out like trash?

I would have instead died if I knew what you would do.
Why didn't you just say goodbye?

Instead, you tortured me and brought back,
the most horrible memory,
from my past that made my heart burst.

You are neither family or someone I love but
I still admire very much.

Goodbye.

Every morning,
I see my dream come true,
Can't believe my eyes,
She is still here and beautiful as ever in the morning daylight.

Every day is a joyful day,
Waking next to my answered prayer still dreaming,
In a bright room,
Draped with loving memories.

Lovers growing closer with time,
As we turn, older,
Her beauty shines brighter, each morning,
As our past; fades away.

As she chases away the darkness, each day.

Our cloudless love burns,
Brighter,
As new dreams,
Are born every morning.

Copyright © 2017 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Kneeling down,
upon the cold, lonely ground,
reading love poetry to my dear Angel,

Remembering our lively days,

Feeling the fluttering breeze from
Angel wings stroking my neck,
with the rose scent of your perfume surrounding me,

Only need a single day,
to forget the loneliness,
wishing one dream would come true,

Spending one moment, with you,
to fill my empty heart,
with warmth,

With your warm breath tickling my neck,

Only need one day, walking with you,
holding your warm hands, kissing you for one last time on earth,
before saying goodbye for just a short while,

Is the one dream, I wish would come true.

My dear sweet Angel,
I miss you so much,
I love you.

Copyright © 2018 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

You are the one love,
Beyond my dreams,
It seems I can never give up.

Long ago,
On a June day,
You changed my destiny.

Am I wrong to feel such intense love,
For a Soul, I have never held?
For a bright spirit that fills my heart every day?

Is this love true?
Is this love I feel wrong?
Is this the love my heart has been waiting so long for?

Love, help me find the courage,
To answer these questions,
And travel home, to where my love dreams.

Home to my eternity.

The story of a kind, loving mother, and a good friend.

On a beautiful sunny spring morning.
I met an island princess living far to the east.
The place where sunrises are born and cherry blossoms shine.

Her eyes were sparkling with kindness and trust,
a new friendship that would last forever was born.

Looking into her eyes seeing a bright sparkle, brighter than the sunshine.

Even back then I saw new life in her eyes,
I knew a beautiful Soul was waiting in Heaven to come to earth.
Never knew God was about to send her a daughter of beauty.

She is my good friend.
She is a kind friend.

She is the most tender loving mother.

She is my dear friend, my kind, friend, a loving mother.

She shines brightly every day. Even on the rainy days, she cries with love and kindness.

She is the brightest star in Seoul who kisses an Angel, her daughter every day.

She hugs her daughter with love and patience.

She is my dear friend, and she is beautiful, amazing,
and lights up the world with sunshine every day.

I write down these words,
Hoping they embrace you,

A dream of love,
Of magic words, to say I Love You,
I am proud to know you,

I'm very happy,
When I touch, you chest,
When I feel the beating,
Of your strong heart,

Feeling your Soul,
The air around us becomes hot!

Your gift of youth travels,
Through space and time,

You send me the sunshine, every day,
Even with heavy rains,

But, this is only a dream of love,
I wish I could embrace your Soul in life,

These years that separate us,
How painful and sorrowful they are,
Two Souls separated by years is a curse,

Even when my world is, sent back to loneliness,
I won't forget my memories of your beating heart,

I know someday,
We will meet, in a distant land and time,
Embracing our Souls,

I write these words to you,
My impossible love,
"My impossible girl."

I sing your praises to the world,

I will always dream, of your Soul singing,
And a free Spirit, which can never be caged...

Copyright © 2015 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Dreaming the same dream over and over again,
All, of a place, a magical place,

Of dragons, nine tailed foxes, white tigers, and bears.

Every night I travel to a familiar past; painting a crescent moon.

Remembering you,
The love I had,
The love for you.

A love for sunrises,
On cold winter mornings, lying next to you.

The warmth of your body lights my
Soul on fire with burning love.

A thousand years have passed,
A burning heart,
Dreams of you bring me hope.

Seeing you again and again,

Wishing this reality is but only a dream.
Wanting to wake up, loving you,
In times past.

Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Falling, falling, rain.
Never ending rain,
Drowning flowers,

Drowning love,
Watering my sorrow,
Sorrow growing, like, crabgrass,

Helpless to stop the flood,

Alone,

Waiting for clear skies, and the sunshine
Will love ever grow again?


Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

South of the black clouds,
My Soul flies,
My heart lives.

South of gray clouds,
I walk the streets of Freedom,

Beautiful Han River,
Carries my Spirit,

Memories of dark clouds linger,
Such a black life I had, living under storm clouds,

My wish is, for the dark clouds to vanish,
I want to live under the blue skies of Freedom,
In the place, I was born.

Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Hope,

Friendship,

Love,
True Love.

I've aways known that you were a warm breeze,
From the east.

That after a soft touch leaves only lost memories behind,

Back then;
Hope was standing by your side watching a bright sunrise,
Friendship was holding on to your soft hand,
Love was bright sunshine sparkling from your smile,

True love is remembering lost memories,
Sitting by your bedside,
Holding on to your soft hand so tightly,
Watching your smile sparkling in the sunshine,
Of our last sunrise.

Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

You are the wonder of my life,
Out of a treasure trove of beautiful fantasies...
The only dream to come true,

Looking at a brilliant star,
Brighter than any sun in the sky,
Wishing to meet you always in dreams... after midnight,

The moment I closed my eyes,
You were always here traveling from thousands of miles away,
embracing me, a butterfly tickling my cheek,

Until we met on that,
amazing Yeouido spring day,
under cherry blossom trees,

I said hello to a beautiful Angel,
covered in pink cherry blossom snow,
My dream come true.

Copyright © 2018 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Walking along the long the lonely roads of life,
Lonely and sad,
Looking for true love once again
An impossibility,

When I know,
Love is waiting for me in Heaven,
A curse, I do not understand,
That God, has bestowed on me.

My beautiful bride,
Dressed in white with Angel wings,
Open arms, beckoning, come to me, my love,
Hold me tight.

Only one step,
In the front of a speeding cannonball,
A speeding cannonball,

It will it take,
To be with you again,
My one and only love.

I've missed you so much,
My bride.

Fate tickles our hearts,
Fate whispers into our ears;
Making us fall in love with tears,
With Souls that we can never hold,

Too many years,
Too far away,

All we have to hold on to,
Are timeless love letters,
Telling us, of our dreams,


That,

We wish would come true.

Yet! The Universe is,
Magical and wondrous,
Where, miracles do happen every day.

Dreams can come true.

Copyright © 2015 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Love Was Born

You tell me,
Crushes are unhealthy,
Crushes tire us out and break our hearts.

They take away our energy,
Fill our Souls with false hopes and memories,
Lead to regrets and impossible fantasies,

Only give the gift of suffering,

My crush died a long time ago,
Six months after fate, pointed me to my destiny,
That you call a hopeless infatuation,

My beautiful rose stabbed me,
Through my weak heart,
With a very long and sharp thorn.

That day, I felt a sharp pain and thought my life ended.
I did not die or run away,
It was the pain of love being born.

The day I discovered I fell in love with a dream.

A miracle that made me strong,
The pain that gave birth,
To impossible fantasies.

Dreams of places and times I never lived.

This miracle that gave me the courage to stay,
To write of impossible love, heroes, music, courage,
And fairy tales, I share with the world every day.

There is only one more fantasy,

I pray love grants me,
The health and courage,
To bring into my reality.

Copyright © 2017 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Another wishful night falls,
Gazing at the stars in Heaven,
It's you who is clear to me,

Always dreaming,
Dreaming of only you,
Dreaming of only you and me, you saving a lost Soul,

I'm calmed by the memories of you,
My yearning heart rises to your smile,
I carry your likeness always in my mind,

In the hushed night,
Shooting stars fly,
Beckoning me to fall asleep.

I wait for the pure Moonlight,
To shine through my windows,
A ghostly mist surrounds me,

My heart misses a beat, A ghostly figure in the fog,
Time has come, to uncover my Soul,
It's you! You who saved my spirit, so very long ago...

Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Loving you is like the warmest coat, on a freezing winter's day,
Holding you in my arms; I  love listening to your breathing,
Your strong heart beating.

Oh beautiful Love,
My warm coat,
A beating heart in my arms,

So close to you love,
Like, only two Souls existing in time,
You're red lips and bright smile,

I want to kiss you, kiss you...
Feel so happy, like on a warm summer day,
Skies are blue,

Long walks, with you,
Singing and laughing,
At all the spring flowers and birds,

Oh love, how much I love you,
I want to kiss you, kiss you...

I am afraid of getting sick.
I am afraid of having to stay inside all the time in my bed.
I am afraid that I will lose all my friends.
I am afraid that my friends will be scared of me because I am sick.
I am even scared my friends will think they can catch this cancer from me.

I am afraid of losing my hair.
I am afraid of all those chemicals the doctors are giving me.
I am afraid that my life will end in pain.
I am afraid that my brain is going to stop working.
I am even afraid I will never have ice cream again.

I want to get healthy again.
I want my hair to grow back.
I want to go outside and play in the sunshine.
I want I want this cancer to disappear.
I even want to taste ice cream again.

I want to ride my bicycle down to the ocean pier.
I want to have my twenty first birthday party.
I want to go shopping for new clothes.
I want to play with all my friends.

I even want to help others who have this horrible disease cancer.

Most of all!
I wish this horrible nightmare of cancer was just a bad dream.

All your Happy thoughts!
Now put your hands up.

Every night I sail to your heart in my bed,
Lost in a fairytale.
Can you hold my eyes and be my guide?

Memories filled with cities covered with high blue skies,
What kinda dream is this?
You could be the loneliest of dreams or a beautiful memory.
Either way, I don't wanna live without you.

Mountains, we climb high (yeah!)
Streets of cherry blossoms, we run, though (beautiful!)
Never ending songs, we listen too (partying!)

Yes! So amazing right now,
Most incredibly fantastic.
Oh! So amazing. Oh! So amazing.
Yes! A dream so incredible right now.

All the memories of you are independent,
Throw your love at me!
All the memories making love,
Throw your arms around me!
All the memories I truly feel warm all over,

Tonight I'll be your incredible dream.
I'm callin' all my wishes,
I know you want me.
Tonight I'll fill your amazing emptiness,
I'm callin' all my passion and tenderness,

To love you.

Copyright © 20116 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Even today, I look at you, from a lifetime ago,
and see you on the day when your tomorrows,
were stolen away,

I love you so much,
Thank you for loving me,
Because I can still embrace you in memories; even today.

I can still walk the earth,
even though my heart hurts,
I am happy; you love me.

I know, I will hold your spirit again, in Heaven, one day,
and wipe away the tears,
because you are the Angel, who loves me.

Rest well now, my love,
see you tomorrow,
and all the tomorrows to come…

Copyright © 2018 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Standing on a mountain top alone,
Looking at the mid-August night sky,
Seeing Heaven crying tears,

Tears carrying memories of you back to me,
It's so hard to erase the memories,
 We made together from my mind,

Each bright tear fills my heart with kind thoughts of you,
From our days past,

With you and me holding each other's Souls close,
We were always afraid to let go,
For if we did,
Our love would not last,

But, I'm still trying to hold on to you,
Should I feel guilty not letting you go?
Not letting anyone else's tears fill my heart?

How can I just let you go?
When I see falling stars each night, like Angels from Heaven,
Carrying messages from you,
Telling me not to let you go.


Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Holding our hearts is where we start,
One million miles can't keep us apart,
When our worlds collide and my days are dark.

You are my blue sky; you are my bridge across an ocean of time,
I travel to you in misty midnight dreams,
To touch you, my sweet love.

Wishing, never leaving the arms,
Of my empress with hair of black, fluttering in a cool southern breeze,
Dressed in red, blue, and cloaked in Angel white.

The fire in your red lips,

Seeing you see me,
Bringing me out,
From behind the mist.

Found my bride and married her Soul now,
My wife!
My passion, a thousand years past.

Copyright © 2017 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Lost in this place,
Born into the wrong time; a time I don't belong,
Always looking to the past,

Dreaming the same dream,
Holding you close,
Walking a golden path,

Snowing cherry blossoms,
On a warm spring day,
Rainbows shining brightly across an eastern sky,

Every night,
Stars remind me of you,
My only love,

The impossible love we once had,
The lover,
I would never forget,

You still hold my heart,
I left with you,
A thousand years past,

Waking lost without you,
Without dreams; I don't belong here, in this place.
No matter what I do, or where I go,

Looking and looking every day,
Can't find you; find the one dream I miss,
I wish would come true,

Where are you, my beautiful desire?

Copyright © 2018 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

What place is this, covered in glow?
Glowing brightly,
Bright as snowflakes sparkling on Sharon's rose,

What city is this?
Streets covered in white,
White as Diamonds falling in beams of moonlight,

What time is this, covered with Hope?
Hope as bright as a large river gaining strength,
Never giving up on its journey,
As it ebbs and flows with the tides of space and time,

What home is this?
A shining Seoul dazzling, in beams of sunlight,
Sounds of children singing,
Playing! In winter's first snow.



Copyright © 2015 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

The snow falls,
covering youthful memories,
and a loving bloom,

Eleven thousand kilometers away,
shines, a thatched roof house,
surrounded by bright fields of barley,
with towers of glass rising in the distance.

Boundless waves, of a cold ocean
separates me
from my dream,

I pray to God, for a miracle,
to touch the land, I miss from
my youthful days,

To return home to you,
in the real world.
Is my hope, I mourn every day,

With spring snow melting,

To the nation of my youth,
With cherry blossoms blooming,
kneeling down upon my Seoul,

Thanking God, I'm finally home.

Copyright © 2018 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

This night is so dark, as dark as storm clouds,

Without your shining light!
I don't remember who I am,

The cold winter winds blowing,
Are making my heart feel so cold,

The afternoon breeze shook
The branches of the trees,
Leaves, fall like tears,

Where has the warm summer gone?
My heart feels so cold, as cold as winter winds,

This countryside looks like a painting,
With dark storm clouds,
Without your bright shining light,

The night is so very dark,
Without your shinning soul to warm my heart,
I don't remember who I am.

© 2014 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Ooh, love!
Faith, endurance, and hope,
Cool breeze,
Barley dancing in the fields,

Life is a warm rain falling from a gray sky,

Love is a drizzly rain.
Warm, stormy sunsets hide Heaven's stars,
Why does the sky cry?
Where is the big blue sky?

The warm rain,
Loves, the roof of a small house,
The moon laughs like a haunting memory,

All flowers love bright sunny sunrises.

Love is a carried on a new day's breeze.
Love is coffee brewing, banana bread baking,
Love is a bowl of rice and kisses.


Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

My love for you will last forever,
I miss you every day,

It's impossible
I can't touch your face,
I see your aspect and words directly in front of me,
Listening to sweet old music and your heartache,

It's impossible,
I can't find a way to stand by your side,
Born in different times,
Our hearts so far away, Born in different places,

Our Souls have followed a path through time,
Never being able to touch truly each others hearts,

I can never stand by your side.
So far away we stand in different places and times,

Never being able to touch your chest,
To feel your beating heart,

I miss you so much when you're not here,
Miss your kind words,
Miss your bashful smile,

My love for you will last eternally,
Even, not being able to kiss your lips,

I miss you so much,
When you're not around.

Copyright © 2016 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

We walked a cherry blossom covered path to our future,
Now I walk alone in dreams, the road to our past,

It's too late for me,
No longer can I travel home,

I walked with you along the path of life,
For only a short time my love,

Before dark clouds covered the sunshine in my life,
Covered always in dark clouds, raining tears,
Never looking forward, missing our past,

We never said farewell,
It's beyond my control,
To turn back time to say I love you for one last time.

Copyright © 2017 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Beneath a crescent moon,
flows a curved river,
where I stand, looking at reflections from Heaven.

Under the night sky,
stands a lonely person,

Amidst my dreams,
I follow the stream,
gathering memories,

All my life,
looking for you,
you who touched my Soul long ago.

Fate has sent me,
on a long journey to find you,
It's my destiny to meet you
once again at river's end.

Copyright © 2017 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

Standing here,
Looking at the stars,

Thinking!

How can I send my
Love to your heart?

I plant red roses for you at my life's end. Hoping one
Will find its way for perfection to hold one day. Roses
Travel so far
Across space and
Time. Roses awake every Spring
And sing their song of beauty all summer long. I send my love to you Across time and
Space,
To hold close to your heart to
Say I love you

I stand here looking at the stars. How can I send my
Love to
You to hold close to your heart one day?


© 2014 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

An ocean away,
So far apart,
Too many years, separate our hearts.

I see your words and drawings in the morning and evening each day,
They captured my heart.
Why must we be so close but so far apart?

I must not be worthy of your heart.

Why am I sitting in this cold lonely place?
I wish I could understand this world.

Why did God not let us meet in the same time and place?

Face to face,

Heart to heart!

I awoke Sunday morning.
Never understanding completely,

I hear a familiar song playing.
Out my window to my surprise!
I see a field of red roses in bloom.

In this beautiful redness I see an angel in a blue dress,
Floating at a piano and playing
The song “Only Hope”

Rose...

These cold days remind me a warm place,
Like a fire burning in the fireplace,
Memories stoke the fire burning in my heart;

Memories of working in the rice and barley fields,
Tea fields where white jasmine flowers bloom.
Singing songs for everything,

Memories of the cold air swirling around me,
Gave me chills.
Wife and children, love and hope to warm my bones.

Writing these words about my impossible past,
A past that exists in my dreams,
The place I praise every day with words.

You know that even when dark dust blankets the land,
Heavy rains will wash away the dust,
And bring high, bright blue skies.

I see the young traveling this land today,
Some happy some sorrowful,
Always singing,

Singing songs of the past and present,
Binding time and space together,
With strings of silk.

Have you ever loved someone so much?
She remains on your mind day and night,

Friends and family tell you to move on,
Come on it has nothing to do with youth and old age,

Your whole life!

You have been waiting;

Waiting, for dreams to come true,
Waiting every day for the sun to rise,

Seasons come and go,
You've stood alone,

Watching roses bloom, smiling at the sun,
Watching rose peddles fall, like slow tears,

Climbing mountains every day, So tiring,
Reaching for the stars in the sky,

Asking,
What is it like in heaven?

You were once in my world,
You were once in my life,

You were once the rock,
That kept me from falling,
From the mountain top.

Copyright © 2015 Ronald J Chapman All Rights Reserved.

In springtime,
I fell in love with a foxy lady.
She was like cherry blossoms floating in the breeze.

When spring flowers bloom,
Our love is bold,
Like white petals on the rose.

In the summertime, our love is warm — She tickles my fancy with nine tails like white feathers floating from head to toe,

When dawn is bright and blue, our love is playful — two people kissing in the sunshine.
If thunder rolls in our love is brave, a shelter from the drenching rain.

When autumn leaves fall, our love is golden and sweet,
Shining bright like a persimmon harvest at sunrise.

From the Mid-autumn Festival till the first dawn of the new year,
Our love will continue to shine.

For thousands of seasons past and future,
In this world without end,
We have always loved and will love always!

My only love, my Gumiho.

Last night's dreams were hard to say goodbye,
I wish you would stay,
I can't help it,
Missing you and I playing,
You and I walking a path, covered with cherry blossoms,
Dreaming dreams of our future,

The quickest way to our dreams,
Is always to choose the most beautiful path in life,

Tonight you and I will play again,
Hearing your laughter,
Seeing your happy smile,

Saying goodbye, brings sadness,
I hate seeing tears in your eyes,

Tonight's dreams are hard for me to tell you goodbye,
Thousands of words written to you,
Float across time,

Seeing you living in a Miracle,
Love at first sight,
Destined to stand with you,

To embrace you,
You and I on the Southern shores of Joseon,
Hearing waves roar from an Eastern sea,

Dreaming,

Love is deeper than any ocean,
Love is stronger than any storm,

Loving you until the end of time, hand in hand,

Tonight's dream is hard,
To say goodbye...

Time has been standing still,
While I still look for you,
With the coming of a Far Eastern sun,

So much time without you,
My heart stopped beating,
So very long ago,

Looking at you sleeping,

In your dreams;

Are you looking at me?
There is me!
Standing by your side,

It's not easy for me gasping,
Looking at a gorgeous ghost,

But, only a dream,

My final destiny no longer matters,
My heart is empty without you here,

Holding out my empty hand,
Wishing you'd grab on,
And take me back home,

Back home to my dream.

One person,
One love,

A treasure to hold,
Shining! Brightly in the darkness,

Seeing the sky in your blue eyes,
Seeing the sunshine in your smile!

Feeling the warmth in your touch,
Feeling the beating of your heart,

Touching your Soul,
Makes my life whole,

I love you!

When should I give up?
When I can't find evidence of love.
When is the right time to get closer?
A good time for the tears to stop?

Can't find the courage to stand in front of you,

I can only stand here in this distant place,
Looking at you, my dream,

After all, there seems to be one thing I will never do.

It's about to rain pink cherry blossoms in that far away place,
Tears are falling at days end,

Crying, while watching sunsets dawning
Over the shores of a dream far to the East,

Why do I think so much of you?
A woman dressed in red, white blue and black,
Waving from the shores of an Eastern Sea.

Are you a person?
Or, only a dream waving from that distant place?

Am I wrong to have such thoughts,
When I can't find evidence of love,
Can't find the courage to stand beside you?

Suddenly! She appeared in front of me,
Not saying a word,

She silently looked at me,

She smiled,

Slowly she took hold of my hand,
She took away the silence of loneliness,
She took away the pain,

She whispers,
My love, there is nothing wrong,

She said;
The past doesn't matter anymore,
Let memories turn back into stardust,

As long as you're here for me to lean on,
As long as you hold on tight,
And dream happy dreams with me, when the sky turns dark at night,

There is never an ending;

Stars can not be perfect,
Unless the sky is dark, like a black velvet dress,

The past doesn't matter anymore,

Stay with me tonight,
Never again will I be afraid of the morning.

The land where the living meets the dead.
Looking over the great river Han,
A dark place of missing,

Like a dream,
Sacrificing a thousand Lives.

Can you feel the magic of Hero's?
Resting in this place,

Shadows of stone stand tall,
Rising through the mists of a dark history,
Taller than the tallest buildings in Seoul,

Where the magic of life has ended,
In this dark place,  immortality lives on,

Where Faith, Strength Courage will always shine,
Shine brighter than a mother and child
watching their first sunrise,

A place the dead will guard us for eternity.

It seems my whole life,
I've been waiting for,
For a rose to bloom,

Lonely seasons have come and gone,
My family and friends have moved on,

I'm waiting for a rose to bloom,
The years have been cold without seeing,
A bright red rose blossom,

Until!

I wake up on a bright June morning,
I look through my window and,
See a bright red rose sent from heaven,

It seems you were part of my heart,
You were part of my life,
You were always here,

I always looked,
At the wrong time of year.

Spending my whole life, looking down,
with tears falling on God's acre,

Hoping flowers would grow,
never seeing roses bloom.

Never realizing,
you left this place long ago.

Until that fateful day,
God gave me the gift,
to see a short glimpse of Heaven
with you standing there with Angel wings.

Your love, waiting for me in Heaven.

Today I look up at Heaven's stars,
sharing your love with others,
through words and pictures, every day.
