I'll tell you what I miss. I miss that throbbing heart telling me to take a leap when the sky looks too dark. I miss the walks that I took in the narrow cobblestoned pathways that fumed of history and undying stories of love and loss. I miss the coffee that scented like mist in a frozen dream in a land of strange beauty. I miss that symphony of mad evenings ending in a sky full of stars to fill my soul with an unknown ecstasy. I miss that hand of an old woman trying to tell me her story. I miss that night where I lay back on a distant balcony gazing at the solitary moon for hours knowing that it is shining back home just as bright. And I'll tell you now when I look back I see how wonderful time has treated me and how grateful I am to have lived in moments that roar of a beautiful life lived with a heart throbbing to take a leap once again in that ocean of a beguiling journey.
