Nam Hye Seung writes about memories that refuse to fade. ‘Why are you still right here? Why do you still live inside my heart?’ These lines capture the ache of holding onto someone who’s gone. The poet mentions lights turning on in the mind, a metaphor for memories that stay vivid despite time.

Nae gieoge buri kyeojyeoThe lights turn on within my memories,
Nuneul gameumyeon deo seonmyeonghaejyeoand everything becomes clearer when I close my eyes.
