[BL] When He Comes (일년에 한 번의 사랑)

Love in Belief

(Kim So Hyun)

I believe that love stays.

Even when it leaves the room.

Even when it moves far away,

or forgets to call back.

I believe that waiting is love.

Not the desperate kind—

but the quiet kind,

like sitting by the window with the lights off,

just in case someone comes home.

I believe you’ll come back to me.

That someday,

we’ll laugh again under the same sky,

and nothing will have changed

except how much I’ve missed you.

I believe love is a lighthouse.

Even in the roughest storm,

it doesn’t blink.

It just stands there, glowing,

hoping you find your way by the light it leaves on.

I believe in the thread between us.

Even when it stretches too thin to see,

even when the wind tries to snap it,

I think it holds.

I think it always will.

I believe that time is patient,

if love is true.

That it waits behind every clock face,

every calendar square,

every train station goodbye.

I believe you still hear me,

even when I say nothing.

Even in the long silences.

Especially then.

I believe the stars keep secrets.

That they watched us fall in love

and promised not to forget.

So even if we’re far apart,

we’ll always live in the same sky.

I believe in fairy tale endings.

Not the ones with castles,

but the ones where two people meet again

after everything tried to pull them apart—

and they just know.

I believe that if I hold on,

you’ll feel it.

Like a beacon around your wrist,

pulling you gently home.

I believe in promises.

Even if I’m the only one

still whispering them into the dark.

Because love—

if it’s real—

doesn’t end.

It just waits.
