바다

"바다" she tells me

"baaahh dahhh" i repeat like a sheep incompetent

one year later and i sit staring at the same crayon drawing of the sea

reading "바다" and remembering

how we wrote chalk notes on the board

hello

hi

youre cute

youre hot

youre beautiful

how are you

... 바다 has brought me here again
for you
or me
i do not know
