Dearest,
The sunlight touched my cheeksㅡit woke me up,
Then a thought crossed my mindㅡ
it made my world stopped.
I closed my eyes, for a while.
As I saw your face, I can't help but to smile.
I got up from my bed,
and fixed myself.
A sudden surge of trembling,
within me, I felt.
Your photograph on my table got my attention.
I stared on it,
and smile on my inspiration.
Dearest,
today is our 8th-year anniversary.
I'll make this one specialㅡjust for you and me.
You forgot to greet me again!
But it's still fine.
It wouldn't make me love you less,
for you are already mine.
What do you want to do today?
Should I ask you?
Or I'll just decide on my own?
Perhaps you want me to surprise you.
Just a walk in the park?
How 'bout a candle-lit dinner?
Whatever it is, all I want to hear is your laughterㅡ
the most euphonious sound ever,
the most harmonious sound that I want to hear forever.
Oh! Last night, I've written a poemㅡa letter.
I'll give this to you,
together with a bouquet of your fav'rite flower.
Look! I came back to writing,
'cause it endures this agony.
You once told me that I am best when it comes to poetry.
But I wouldn't be the best without you, my Love.
For you are my subjectㅡan angel sent from up Above.
I know within myself that I am not a love poet,
but when you walked into my life,
a promise, I had kept;
For every stroke of my pen,
for every poem that I will write,
it'll be all about youㅡ
about how you made things right.
How you taught me to always look on life's radiant side,
and you told me that no matter what happens,
I shouldn't feel terrified.
'Cause you are with meㅡmy sweetest serendipity.
You helped me find my way out inside the labyrinth of misery.
When I was about to give up,
You were the one who'd lifted me up.
My dearest love,
I was just a speck of dust within this universe.
I was an unfortunate, unlucky guyㅡ
a man full of curse.
Until you came into my darkest worldㅡ
you've changed my whole life.
You'd tranfigured my loneliest night into brighter onesㅡ
you are my guiding light.
You'd took off the mask that I was wearing.
You'd seen my scarred life,
as well as my wounds that are still bleeding.
Instead of leaving me without an explanation,
You chose to hug me without any hesitations.
Dearest...
I was once a "nothing".
But when I saw your smile,
it felt like I already have everything.
May I see those smiles once more?
May I see your eyes stare on me...
the way you did before?
As I walk towards that place where you are,
my feet keep on tremblingㅡ
I can see your name from afar.
It has been six years since you left me.
It had happened on that exact date of our second-year anniversary.
An accident took you away from me.
An accident isolated my soul within this maze of melancholy.
As I stand next to your grave,
holding this letter and a bouquet of pink roses,
my world splits into twoㅡ
my heart still breaks into millions of pieces.
Dearest, my sincerest apology.
I am being weak againㅡcrying.
My heart and my soul are still grieving.
All I need is just a hug from youㅡ
it'll fix my shattered dreams.
Can you whisper the words "I love you" on my ears?
You are fond of the 11:11 wish, right?
Can you make some wishes,
or just one, for tonight?
If 11:11 won't work,
you still have some shooting stars, my Dear.
Please...
wish upon itㅡDearest, I need you here.
Answer my prayers, please?
I'm so sorry for showing my weaknessㅡ
I can't fight back these tears.
I just miss you so much.
I miss everything about you.
'though you are not here with me,
this heart of mine still beats for you.

Happy anniversary to the two of us.
My love is all yours,
'til my breath comes into its last.
Your love stays with meㅡflames of hope, it still shows.
For when I am on my darkest,
your love is my guiding light...
it still everglows.
