White Morning - Seoul

Backed in to the corners and I’m holding the alarm but

The moment I wake up I come to life again

Slowly as the light shines again (let it go)

It’s the frozen white morning,

Empty shopping bags

Are overflowing from my cupboard

Filled to every nook

But you came in from the early dawn

With one of those letters (let it go)

Sat with me that night

And watched me eat my dinner

And you pulled a poem you said you’d read

A classic of the winter

But you dove in to the words spoken so loud

To make sure that the kettle wouldn’t drown you out

Let’s reach the last few words or I couldn’t remember
