Before I try
to describe
this place to you
I need you to see
how the light here
makes my heart sing
lyrics of happiness
I need you to feel
the wind dance across my skin
reminding me
to be alive is to feel love
I need you to smell
a vastness that frees my soul
to be at once
insignificant and immense
I need you to understand
that my life blood flows
not just in my veins
My life flows
not just in me
