Perfection
The beautiful ocean of sapphire blue surrounded me in its soothing, calm embrace
The sky was a starless solid darkness, but there really was no need for cosmic light,
Since the infinite number of glistening azul droplets was more than adequate
There was a gentle hum of whispers, a soft rushing in the great mass, and I was in its midst
It was then the music had started to play-
A gorgeous, subtle melodic harmony of piano and violin
The dazzlingly beautiful sea instantly began to wave back and forth in perfect synchronization

Anyone who didn't know better would have assumed this really was an ocean,
When it was in fact almost a million blue glow sticks, supported by almost a million hands,
And I was apart of this lovely azure
The sweet music continued on, and I was lost amongst the absolute serenity that surrounded me
Then, almost as soon as it began, my ears immediately took notice that the introduction began to fade

A unified shout suddenly materialized from this gorgeous, waving human sea,
One that spread like wildfire until almost every voice was lifted
The exclamation overflowed with the abundance of love and excitement
My eyes instantly fluttered open and my mouth gaped in amazement

I had little time to celebrate along with the countless others, though,
Since I saw every glow stick become a hyper-statically charged particle
A universal exclamation erupted ,flooding the entire space- which could only mean one thing
I instantly tore my attention (rather painfully) from the mesmerizing blue lights and turned back to the front
What I saw next evaporated every trace of oxygen from my lungs

Flawless
There was simply no other way to describe the captivating beauty that stood before me
The brilliance of the spotlight shone upon this magnificent creature, exposing every feature perfectly
My hands involuntarily dug into my pocket for my cellphone, but I instantly decided against it
A mere video or picture could never recapture the unspeakable loveliness my wide, starry hazel eyes absorbed
Soft auburn locks gracefully frame the features of his face while a beautiful reddish-brown tint glints off it from the overhead light
The flawless skin of his forehead, cheeks, and chin are exposed as well his eyebrows,
Naturally shaped to give his face a gentle, thoughtful, genuinely kind appearance
Black rectangle-lens glasses highlight bold, sweet eyes- a lovely shade of hazelnut brown
A perfect nose
As my eyes traveled down slowly, they were met by high cheekbones and sharp jawline,
Subtly turning into an elegant slope of his chin
Despite all this beauty, everything seemed to pale in comparison when he smiled
Thin pink lips outlined two symmetric rows of glistening, flawless teeth
His smile alone produced such a brilliance, such a warmth
It was almost as if I was sitting near a comforting fire, surrounded by millions of flickering blue sparks in the background

His overall expression was that of pleasant surprise, humble appreciation, and relieved happiness
It was obvious by the way his chocolate eyes slowly scanned every inch of the flowing ocean before him,
Lighting up in gentle awe of the cheering, waving mass

I took into notice how thin he was, his pure ivory dress shirt accentuating his torso
I hadn't meant to analyze the death out of the poor man, but I simply could not withhold myself
His black slacks emphasized his ridiculously long legs
A knowing smile manifested on my face
Everyone who new this dazzling male couldn't go without noticing the slim, endless length of his lower limbs
His pale hand boasted thin, elegant fingers that wrapped tightly around the microphone as he slowly brought it to his mouth,
His smile had yet to leave his face

I realized it hadn't even been two seconds since the man had appeared,
Yet within those couple of moments, my heart had become a melting,mixed concoction of joy, admiration and pride
It wasn't merely the man's captivating aura that stirred up such emotion within me, but instead the reality of the situation
I was really here, inside the famous Tokyo Dome,
Now an aquarium of neon blue
The man I had supported since the very beginning five years ago was now just feet away
It was really him
I no longer had to dream during the halcyon night in order to see the gorgeous images, but now I stood here watching in person,
Glowstick gripped tightly in my small palm
Eyes beginning to form teardrops
Everything within me whispered his name

Zhou Mi

Then he began to sing, and my heart immediately overflowed with abundant radiance from the sweet, rich voice that exited the Chinese man's mouth
The entire stadium instantly began to sing along,
A heavenly voice of a chorus in perfect synchronization with the handsome singer

I didn't even try to withhold my tears of overwhelming happiness
I myself had subconsciously joined the affectionate heart-cry of the sapphire blue ocean
The moment almost seemed too perfect, too beautiful to take place
The depths of my soul were utterly contented
This is how is should be
This man now standing so confidently on the stage did not always have this beautiful collection of admirers, however
Instead, many of these individuals waving their glow sticks so proudly and thousands more had previously screamed at Zhou Mi
To exit the stages of multiple concerts,
To retire from the entertainment business altogether,
And even to kill himself

They had ignored him,
Showered him with insults,
Thrown harmful objects at him

One may wonder the reason as to why someone so special,
So precious
Would have been the target of this sort of abuse
It was still an unanswered question for me, though I knew the cause
Zhou Mi was a Chinese member joining a long-established popular, and well-loved Korean band
This had caused protests, scandals, and a massive collection of unneeded hate, racism, and scorn
Nevertheless, Zhou Mi had persevered through each hardship,
Conquering every obstacle that had been cast his way

I ceased my mind's wanderings for a moment to focus my attention once again to the beautiful creature,
Singing each word with such a deep passion that made the intimate, genuine whisper of “I love you” between two individuals seem as nothing whatsoever
The music slowly began to fade, signaling the closing soon approaching

This man was so special, and to hear the lovely chorus that blended in perfectly with the soft song,
To see all the blue supportive lights waving gently in the darkness ignited a bright flame inside the core of my racing heart
Zhou Mi's powerful last note rang out over the entire area,
Forcing itself deep into every heart
His beaming smile transformed to a quivering lip as his eyes filled with tears
The crowd had began to shout his name
“Zhou Mi! Zhou Mi! Zhou Mi!"

With a shaking hand, he attempted to wipe the streams of tears that had trickled down his cheek,
While the other brought the microphone back to his lips
His words were genuine and clear as he spoke in Mandarin
“Thank you. Thank you so very much.
It's so overwhelming to see and hear such a beautiful thing.
Thank you for supporting me- That's all I can say
Thank you..."

The crowd exploded into applause as my own heart leaped for joy
The only words that my brain could engender were he totally deserves this
I can't remember a time when I had been happier and more proud
Surrounded by the glistening lights, I focused once again to the special, sweet Zhou Mi- my inspiration merely feet away
The one who had taught me to never back down,
To keep brightly shining even when darkness threatened to take away my very existence
To push through each stinging insult, every icy glare

Zhou Mi had won over most of his opposition through tireless effort,
Confident perseverance,
And with that dazzling smile that beamed from his perfect face at that very moment

I silently lifted a prayer up to heaven
The prayer that this sparkling sea of admirers would never disappear,
But continue to grow until the entire earth was covered by the illuminating allure of blue glow sticks out of acceptance, love, and support for Zhou Mi
And all of Super Junior
The undying hope that this Chinese man would retain his confidence,
His smile,
His tender heart,
And the will to keep persevering,
To keep singing upon the stage until eternity's end

Forevermore
