You used to sit right there
by the dinner table
scents of coffee
light coming through the window
we looked outside
small breeze
made the trees dance
orange sky
yellow fields

the grass is not greener
on the other side
spring is knocking
on my window
where are you?
I've made us some coffee
poured you a cup
opened the window
I'll wait here for you
And everything
Had happened
The way they promised
It wouldn’t.

I don’t think it’s fair to ourselves that we humans know we’re fallible, untrustworthy, impulsive, selfish, hormonal creatures
and yet we make huge life decisions over night or in a moment

perhaps based on what you were feeling in those seconds and
not the way you feel tomorrow,
or in six months or even in a few years

how are we supposed to know that’s the right choice?
if we make the wrong one then everyone will tell us how stupid we were for messing it up even though we didn’t know back then how it was going to turn out
how do you trust yourself well enough to know…
This is unfinished. I really just need to get my thoughts out there
I should’ve
waited
for someone
like
her to
come
into my
life.
He was asleep dreaming
Yet he still felt her hand in his
It was as if she was really there
It wasn’t
He felt the warmth of the touch
It gave him comfort and peace
Sometimes reality isn’t everything
Dreams and memories are
The power of care and love

evasive sleep
i’ve been awake since three
i pray the way i’m thinking of you
is the same you’re dreaming of me

all my thoughts had gone to riot
so i set out to find some quiet
but even way behind the city’s lights
the silence here is not as bright

the roads are crowded with noisy cars
screams and hollers, the sounds of bars
pool tables, beer bottles, the music loud
relinquished solace in fiery cloud

despite the throbbing in my walking legs
my steady stalking refused to stay
and my soles engulfed in a blistering heat
could not stop me from seeing every street

cats in the trash and moths and bones
the racket i heard was mine alone

never felt this but i know every bone
in your hand. i’ll never let you be alone
again. hold me close, iced coffee in the cold
on a bench by a pond at a palace
you made Seoul feel just like home

I think
the world
needs
more
of us
than we
can offer
