Three little(BIG) things

A Poet's First Love (시인의 첫사랑)

Kim Xiumin,

it was him once 

again

taking the spot

of the top scorer

again.

I was L U H A N

number 24/100

again.

 

March Twenty-seventh

Year Two-Thousand-Fourteen

At the lockers we met once

again.

That pair of eyes

I peered through the lines

of the metal locker of mine

that hid me behind.

You walked past with 

that group of friends

Happily smiling

as you passed me.

 

June Twelfth

Two-Thousand-Fourteen

Sports day

I saw you dressed in

a soccer jersey

playing for your class

against me.

I intercepted your

attempt

to kick the ball

to the end

but you fell on me

as I stretched out my leg

and you tripped over it.

 

Sweaty and muddy

the smell of you

still hanging on me

I went to a nearby stall

catching a drink.

I stretched out for

a bottle of water

and another hand

overlapped mine.

it was you

Kim Xiumin

I knew

that was covering

my hand.

instantly,

you took it back

head hung low

walked away

 

Three things

candy-like small

globe-sized big

this may not be all

that has happened

but it proved that

something was

meant to be


Yoonjae's note:

This part has no punctuation errors or grammatical errors out there, everything is done deliberately. The reason behind the non-capital letter sentence opening is because that may or may not be how far the sentence can go, depending on your perspective. You may imagine anything else in that spur of a moment, but if you choose not to, the sentence may remain the same. Enjoy!

Chapter 8: this post is really interesting. the fact that it is not really in a story/narrative format makes it unique and one of a kind. the poems are short yet apealling. though a chapter or two did seem redundant or repetitive but l take it that it is due to diff. perspectives.

Also, correct me if l am wrong: Luhan is definitely locker no. 326 while Minseok is locker no. 204.

nevertheless, it is a good read. Well done & looking forward to the update.
