Nov 2016
When you were taken from me,
On the cold spring day.
I began painting with a brush dipped in words.

Cherry blossoms blooming,
Sound of the gayageum,
A haegeum crying.

Promises made,
Promises kept,
Promises were forgotten.

Drinking soju,
Driving away sorrowful spirits.

Painting words with love,
Painting words with loss,
Painting  words with tears,
Painting words with hope!

Complicated life,
Sorrowful days,
Half a lifetime past,

Looking at Heaven,
Asking why?

Getting drunk,
Can't forget our dreams,
Living years without love,

Wishing to return to Heaven and you,
My beloved.
