TWENTY-YEAR-OLD LANGUAGE
It made me smile for a moment.
It’s a twenty-year-old language.
Its skin is as soft as sun-dried cotton.
It’s the strong scent of coffee that makes it difficult to sleep.
It is a line of poetry that serves as a guide.
It’s the lively melody of a freshly baked CD.
Strong like a walnut shell,
Not shaken by the cry of a black cat.
The white nape of the neck shines even in the twilight.
They are the wings of the wind that advance uphill, etc.
Writing a letter even in a blizzard.
Turning on the street lights every day.
For a twenty-year-old language,
I need to hang up my white dress.
IT’S FINALLY SUNNY
The thoughts that were hanging around that day,
The tears that accumulated because I couldn’t sort them out
I guess they left
Letting go of this heavily suppressed time,
The whole yard is full of guests.
I can’t delay.
I need to choose light and sturdy shoes and prepare to meet them.
The lilac color is bright on the white dress.
The bright yellow butterfly that was flying in and out of the canvas is also spreading its wings.
Today remains as a handful of memories,
Even if it’s like the wind
To avoid being paralyzed like a scarecrow
Love parrots and light red reeds must also be welcomed.
I finally
Learning loving eye contact
Jump up from the bench.
