From August:

My heart in this place is torn

I've never felt so much
Beauty
and Light
In one place

But I miss you
I miss you
I miss you repeats
Over and over
In my head

I wish you could see this
The way I see it
The way the colors meld
The way the sun feels
The way the ocean sounds

My mind in this place is muddled

I've never been so
Sure
and Confident
As I am here

But I'm lonely
I'm lonely
I'm lonely penetrates
My constant barrier
Between my head and my heart


I wish I could see this
The way she sees it
The way the cloudless sky burns
The way the nights never last
The way the desolate desert dries

My soul in this place knows:
It is partway home
