goodbye | bts

we

the last smile

it felt as if
they were
flying

the last time
they would step
out of bighit
entertainment.

cameras
flashing
everywhere

the cameramen held up
their weapons
and they shot

"smile for the camera!"

kim seokjin didn't know
why he asked to keep the picture

maybe he wanted
one last memory
of him and his friends
his equals
his family

once, he had called himself
world wide handsome
but now?
would he ever be
worldwide anything
ever again?

then
it clicked with him
when the shutters went down
and the camera flashed

he's given a genuine smile

which could be the last one
he'd give anybody
for a long while.

he wanted proof
he wanted the memories.

once again

time stopped

frozen

caught forever

in a photograph

eyes open

smiling

happy

photographic evidence

of what once was

goodbye, bangtan
