Journey of Souls


It can now be made official--
Bali is my home.
I have settled here in
swift movement
and it’s all good.

Dreams of tomorrow have yet to consume
this fulfilled mind of mine.

In today, I smile and create the life I’ve longed for.
Adjusting never felt so easy.

Breezes blow, carrying my soul down the path of unspoken desires--
waiting to become reality.

How many of you and you and you will I meet?
How many stories will I hear of great adventures in grand lands?

Not enough for this woman who wants to bathe…
in every single memory
of every single soul.

Tell it to me, all.

Let me create a sunflower field of ideas,
to bask in and wait patiently for my time.

It’s right around the corner but I’m just on a stroll…
I’ll get there eventually and bittersweet it’ll be.

You were here before

There is beauty in saying goodbye.
A mystery in when I'll see you again.

Refreshing to know that life will go on...
drifting in directions of which nobody really knows.

So many opportunities to meet new people.
So many opportunities to share life experiences.

But nothing quite compares to the day you came around.

In my past life, you were there.
Can't tell you what your role was but...
your presence is too familiar to deny.

Nice to meet you again my friend.
It's been way too long.
