Daehaung-ro

Sitting under soft lights
pop music playing behind the Cranberries
i am the lone occupier of a table for four
watching the city street below
people move with purpose
couples sitting
an awkward first date
a familiar sharing born of time
friends sitting
telling of their hearts
recounting the events of the day

a lone sitter
writing poetry
drinking hot lemon tea
a silent observer of all around her
