You say you are looking for home,
집 – jib
not the actual structure, 4 walls, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom but
the concept of home,
a sense of belonging.
You,
make houses for others
hoping to find a piece of yourself in every
design,
the walls that keep treasures
art that say’s
“yes, this is who I am”.
예, 이것은 내가 누군지입니다 – ye , igeos eun naega nugunji ibnida
My house,
a place where I find myself,
filled with an assortment of odd plants here and there,
books revealing my literary prowess,
art displaying the duality of life
dark and light
어둠과 빛 – eodumgwa bich,
longs for belonging
a place of rest also,
I tell you, my friend
내 친구 – nae chingu,
we are searching for
validation,
a shelter from the outside world,
where
closing my eyes,
You will still be there in the morning.
