There is no place like the home with a squared bedroom in the color lilac
Crowded with multiple posters and black crowns with gold flowers
Her eyes wander around as she lays down in the light purple sheets
with AirPods on
Noises leaking out of her ears making a vibrant sound
Making it loud on the outside

Fidgeting with her hands and her voice screams in Korean
“My, oh my, oh my, oh 내 사랑 (love) ” by lee hi
As she catches herself repeating the same lyrics on and on
as it ended she repeats the same song over and over on repeat
stuck on her brain
