지독하게(Terribly)

 

지독하게

 

 

지독하게 마음을 파고 들던 실망감의 진짜 이유를 이제야 알겠어.

내 맘을 알아주겠지 하고 혼자서 기대를 키웠던 게 화근이었던 거지.

찬찬히 생각해 보니까

결국 나를 아프게 만든 건 타인이 아니라 내가 품었던 기대 때문이었어.

Terribly

 

 

Only now do I understand the real reason for the disappointment that had pierced my heart so deeply.

It was my own hope that you’d understand how I felt, and that alone that was the root of the problem.

Now that I think about it carefully

In the end, what made me hurt wasn’t others, but the expectations I had held.
