Dreaming After Dying

If I die, will you laugh with your friends behind the funeral flowers?

You’d hide the diamond ring I gave you under the desk, saying it’s not a big deal.

As if I’m begging you to understand and stop the time.

I was wearing black glasses, didn’t watch what was on my path, and the car crashed.

The wound stops bleeding but my eyes won’t.

What a shame.

It was perfect days and I’m counting the journey to the photobox.

With a Korean ballad song playing in my headphones.

Now I just see an empty chair in front of me, cursing the ghost that once whispered sweetly.

I walked, but got lost, between two different spaces and one did not recognize me.

“I loved you, and it’s ruining my life.”

Shouting at the lies that once bathed me.

It’s a pity.

If only it wasn’t such a surreal dream.
