(W) An Angel We Didn’t Deserve

A Farewell

 

I haven't been with SHINee for that long, I've only known them for 3 years now. I found them through Jonghyun when I seen a performance of Hallelujah, I remember I thought who is this talented and beautiful angel that I've found? Lol but it was and is the truth. Jonghyun was and still is a talented human being that was and is a complete angel that we just didn't deserve

The day the news broke out I had broke down about an hour before because a woke up in this state up depression. which isn't foreign for me because I go through depression which I have been for years. I had calmed down and started watching a movie. Then my mother came in the room and asked me who was Kim Jonghyun? I said huh? So she gave me her phone to read it and at first I'm not gonna lie I started laughing because I thought it was a joke and that they were playing with me.
So I read on, then I got to comments and found out it was real, I had never screamed so loud in my life. I screamed the most strangled screamed ever you could tell I was hurt I could hear it in my own ears. I remember just screaming "Jonghyun!", "No Jonghyun!" And "Why!", I was broken... I am broken.
I still couldn't believe it so I just went on Twitter and read everything. I made probably over 8 post on different accounts speaking to him in them because I wanted him to know that he did well, that we always knew he worked hard but no matter what it didn't feel like enough. I still felt like he couldn't hear me and that's what I wanted, I wanted to tell him personally but I knew I couldn't...
Jonghyun wasn't my bias, it's Taemin but Jonghyun has always been one of the most important people to me he meant/means the world to me and that will never change.

Dear Jonghyun
The morning the news broke out that you left us I didn't know what to do and to be honest I still don't know what to do. I don't know when I will, I didn't even understand that you were really gone until I found out that you were finally put to rest but because you can't put a time to grief, I won't. The next day when I woke up I started crying because I knew that you no longer will have the privilege of waking up and for that I am sorry Jonghyun. You were alone and even though I didn't know you personally I somehow blame myself for you feeling lonely

Jonghyun I've went through depression for so many years that I can't even count it now. I wish I could, but I can't. If I'm being honest I hate myself, I hate everything about myself, I've tried so hard for so many years and I've never given up but I've thought about it so much. Like when I have a bottle of pills in my hand, when i'm holding something sharp or taking a bath.
Jonghyun I've never wanted to give up so much in my entire life until you left. it's hard, its so freaking hard and I'm trying but I have no one to speak to. I feel like I'm stuck in a box with no holes to breathe through but I'll stay strong for you because you wouldn't want me to leave this world because you did and I know that.
I miss you Jonghyun and I'm gonna miss you forever. You left us early(too early) because you're too much of an Angel and you did your time as an Angel down here so now it's time to be an angel in the sky and even though I miss you, I know it's time for you to be a star in the sky I love you Jonghyun keep on shining bright like the star you are in our night sky. we'll never forget you honey

I hope you're finally happy, stress free, that you're have a high note contest with Whitney and trying to beat Michael at dancing, but most importantly i hope you no longer feel lonely.

Rest well Bling Bling, you did well and you worked so freaking hard, you ALWAYS did. We Love you Jonghyun, I love you. Sleep calmly baby

Trying to advertise this for the 18th but someone else is bidding really hard so I am running out of karma (already bought more for over 30dollars) so if you have some spare you are willing to donate, I would be really thankful.

I'm aware that it isn't December but I just thought of this post. December will never be easy for a lot of us. I'm more aware of my depression around that time. I just became an adult and the realization that a lot can change has finally hit me. I'm not sure how to feel. People within my family have died or are dying and it seems like the only thing I'm allowed to do is move on. I'm no longer given the luxury of grieving the way I had with Jonghyun. There are so many fond memories that I can go back to with Jjong but for them I only have memories. So much has happened these past few years and while I'm not completely okay I can say there's plenty of room where I've healed.

As year 6 approaches I want my fellow Shawols to know that healing is hardly a linear task. It's okay to not be ready but where you are there's always going to be SHINee.

And Dear Author thank you for keeping this space for all of us.

Thank you for keeping this space for us for so many years <3 This milestone hit me a lot harder than expected, but seeing this brought so much comfort. Miss you to the moon and back, Jonghyun <3

It’s been five years today and just a few days ago I turned 27, the age Jonghyun-ah was when we had to say goodbye to him. I have long since had to “become an adult” and learn what growing up means; yet every year I come back to this little space, and read some of the messages that people wrote for him, and think back to the letter I wrote at 22 and never shared with anyone. I think back to a memory of me looking at the full moon and talking to him for hours, telling him I missed him terribly. We still miss you, friend. I still remember you fondly. I still remember me at 17 dancing to Replay in my room. I’ll always cherish those memories of our Spring.



Author, I hope you have been doing well. Thank you so much for keeping this space running for so long, it brings comfort to some more than you’ll ever know.

Chapter 818: I just really paid attention to SHINee this August. Yet, when Jonghyun passed away four years ago, I felt sad that another beautiful and caring person chose to leave this place. In fact, I didn't want to listen to any SHINee songs then.
Now, watching SHINee's MVs, I feel like I have accepted what happened and hope that he is really happy now.

Time keeps moving on and I wonder why I can't just go back and fix things to when it was so peaceful. So much has happened in the last four years and it feels as though there's only SHINee left to comfort me. Jonghyun for so long I've written my letters to you and I couldn't this year because I couldn't find the strength or will to when I was feeling down. I haven't cried this much since I was a baby. I promised last year that I would tread the new year with caution and that didn't work out so great. There's more I wanna say but I just wish you knew how much I love you. Thank you for being born and sharing your light with the world. Sincerely I love you. 𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒂𝒍𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 𝒍𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 ❤️

It’s been 4 years now and so it’s hard to believe that you left us, but I still do remember you as SHINee’s Blingbling Angel and as the brightest star that shines in the sky.

I used to feel so lonely after knowing that you left us, that I was listening to Lonely everyday for about a year, but now I just remind myself that you’re still with us, as the bright shining star watching over us from the night sky. ❤️
I will always love you.
