the great advantage of being alive
Description
a face full of stone //
a heart with no sound //
a life less than a memory //
what does it mean to be human //
i think i once knew but i've //
forgotten //
will you teach me //
once more?
Foreword
Hello all! I'm back after foreverrrrrrrrr with Jin's installment (finally)!
I know, I know, I'm sorry! I have only the usual excuses: school (SO. MUCH.), friends, looooooooots of other fandoms. I've actually been writing a lot! Just...not kpop fics. Heh. I'M SORRY.
BUT I am back now and I know how I want this story to go, so please bear with me as I slowly make my way through it. I don't think it'll be as long as CCT, but it'll probably be longer than Airplanes and BoY (which were 5 chaps each). WE'LL SEE! Jin in this universe is an interesting character; I think there's lots to explore.
Mm, I feel like I had more to say but I can't remember right now. OH WELL. The story is the most important, so onwards! I hope you enjoy!
* title (subject to change) is taken from the e.e. s poem (which I will include below for reference): also he is my absolute favorite poet if you enjoy poetry and haven't read much of e.e. s GO DO IT NOW HE IS. AMAZING.
the great advantage of being alive (instead of undying)is not so much that mind no more can disprove than prove what heart may feel and soul may touch —the great(my darling)happens to be that love are in we,that love are in we and here is a secret they never will share for whom create is less than have or one times one than when times where— that we are in love,that we are in love: with us they've nothing times nothing to do (for love are in we am in i are in you) this world (as timorous itsters all to call their cowardice quite agree) shall never discover our touch and feel —for love are in we are in love are in we; for you are and i am and we are(above and under all possible worlds)in love a billion brains may coax undeath from fancied fact and spaceful time— no heart can leap,no soul can breathe but by the sizeless truth of a dream whose sleep is the sky and the earth and the sea. For love are in you am in i are in we
