a letter of love
I'm back from Indonesia and missing it with every ounce of my being. I'm not sure how I can express all that I learned and experienced and really do this magical place justice. A love letter perhaps, will have to do for now.
I laughed more than I thought I could
danced more than I thought I would
fell in love with your world and the people who fill it
through yoga I learned it's okay if you spill it
in Borobudur I played with the children
no mother, no father, just big hopes they were fillin'
my feet had an itch they were longing to scratch
your beaches and jungles and temples did that
my soul had a spot it was looking to fill
up dog, down dog, for once I was still
I learned of the Truth, of the body and peace
through study and practice my mind felt at ease
this something, the what, the unknown I've been searching
I found on a whim on an island afar
my soul now complete
no itch in my feet
the sunsets and boatrides and music I'll miss
to you my dear Indo I blow a big kiss
through you I was able to learn of myself
much love and much thanks are coming from me
I took more than I dreamed
terima kasih
