I saved my sanity.
Wandering, lost in Chiang Mai.
The Child, bewildered,
At all the greatest treasures.
Yet a map had not revealed
The back-alleys, hidden between gazes.
In the weave of foreign air,
There lies a curious urge
To explore.
Pondering.
You took me around,
Aimless at cause, but
Genuine in eagerness.
You smile speaks in stars.
Taking in the blue jar,
Laughter over mind.
Thinking in balance,
The necessity in fun:
Every story, an adventure,
Every sip, diving deeper,
Every shot, poetic.
All in days of conversation.
Yet, what lies in fatal attraction,
Pulling me towards you.
Your state of mind;
Your insecurities, your imperfections.
You were lost too.
Life had not yet reveal
The answer to your questions, and
You stand in frustration, without
The sanctimony of
Comfort.
Let me add to yours.
Would you take my hand?
Share this journey with me, as I give you
The chance to find your pursuit?
Maybe, just maybe.
We'll have the end in Chiang Mai.
