This playlist is the heartbeat of us, woven from melody and memory. Each song has been linked so you can listen along and feel the story behind why it belongs to us.The first one makes me recall those first few nights when I realised just how deeply I’d fall for you—or rather, fallen for you. My chest would tighten at the thought of you, my mind refused to wander anywhere but toward you. The line, “What you won’t do, do for love,” resonates like a truth I can’t escape. Loving you consumes me, yet it is the sweetest kind of surrender. When I’m tired or the world feels heavy, the thought of you pulls me into a daze so beautiful it feels like floating; in a space where my heart is entirely yours, wholly devoted, endlessly committed.This next one carries our first “I love you.” Wasn't loud or dramatic; it was quiet, ordinary, and yet utterly extraordinary. In that moment, everything else fell away and all I could feel was the profound simplicity of being with you. “There’s nothing like doing nothing with you,” the lyrics say. Holding your hand, sharing a laugh, or existing in the same space felt like the most important thing in the world. Our first exchange was a gentle revelation—a quiet gravity that pulled my heart entirely toward yours, and this song will continue to remind me of the fragile, beautiful beginning of us.

Capturing the hollow ache of missing you, the way every moment apart feels like a quiet storm inside me, pulling me in directions I can’t control. As the song says, “You are my star.” Being without you is like standing under a dark sky, searching for your light that feels impossibly far away. I always ache for the simple closeness we share; in forms of the warmth of your hand, softness in shared mornings, the once ordinary routines that become impossible in your absence. Distance is raw and relentless, twisting through me and leaving me desperate for the moment I can feel you near again. The ache of being apart is not a burden—but a reminder of how deeply I love you. Through you, a gentleness in me I never knew existed has been drawn out, a tender side that had been buried beneath years of chaos and grief. Through you, I have discovered parts of myself that needed healing, and my love for you has grown in ways I could never have imagined.“I would swim across the sea just to show you / Sacrifice my life just to hold you,” feels like it was written for us. You have scolded me several times about my devotion to the sea, yet in this moment it becomes a metaphor—I would do anything to drown in your love, to be utterly and completely submerged in us. Each day is another chance to leap, it is a thrilling surrender to something greater than fear. With you by my side, I have no fears; every risk feels small, every danger meaningless, because being with you is all that matters. My love for you is a relentless force I refuse to—and will never—contain.

There is a quiet certainty I carry in my chest. No one else could ever fill the space you occupy. I think of times when the world seemed vast, and yet I wanted nothing else but to be with you, to open my eyes and find you in my arms, your voice calming every storm inside me. You anchor me, steady me, complete me. The line of the song echoes my truth: if it's not us, don't want it at all. If it isn’t you, then it isn’t worth it. I would love for you to pay close attention to the lyrics of this song and the next, as they echo my thoughts. Almost feels like they've watched over my shoulder from the initial appearance you made in my leather-bound notebook and certain fountain pen and brown ink I refuse to use otherwise.The joy I have been experiencing makes life feel effortless. Like I said, take this song at face value—no second-guessing, no hidden meaning. How could my day be bad when I’m with you? You’re the only one who makes me laugh like this, the only one who can turn even the heaviest moments into tenderness. Even the hardest days melt when I think of you. That joy, that lightness, that irrepressible giggle—it’s ours, and it makes every moment worth it.Ending with an honourable mention, I will never forget the day you sent this to me and started a fight because you thought that I did not think of you as I listened to it but the secret is now out as it stayed in this little playlist I made for you, quietly waiting, just like the lyrics say. It is a testament to us—every rough patch, every absence, every longing, every ordinary and extraordinary moment, I love you endlessly. You are my beginning, my middle, my always.

This is us. Let it serve as enteral proof that even when the world feels distant and cold, my soul is irrevocably yours. Music has always been sacred to me, a heartbeat I cannot live without, I cannot live without you. I hope this playlist lets you feel a fraction of the joy and love you give me every day, a piece of my soul you can revisit whenever you wish, as endless and enduring as my love for you. Happy first monthsary to us, my 건주님.
