Where I Belong
If a past life beckons, do you answer the call?
Weary and broken, confused and yearning for more;
Homesick for a home I’ve never seen before;
Eeriness befalls me as I search my memory;
Recalling a past life in puzzled reverie;
Earthbound are we not? Do we get a second chance?
I question it no further, for life’s a funny dance;
Believing it true – there's but one thing to do;
En route to a land so familiar, yet new;
Leagues across the eastern sea, I feel my soul swell;
On this journey back, my fears I do dispel;
Nestled now on this island lit in neon and chrome,
Giddy to be back, this is where I’ll call home.

Terror of the Desert
People have described him as an asshole, but he’s never concerned himself with what others think. To him, the world is just littered with self-righteous do-gooders, so it really doesn’t matter how he is. Except with her – he'd do anything for her. His girlfriend is a strong-willed woman with a fiery personality who knows just how to meet him head-on. Unfortunately, they’re currently separated by a desert while she cares for some family in Phoenix. He has plans to visit her this weekend, but decides to surprise her by coming out a day early. He’s a few hours from the city still when he spots a rundown shack, presumably selling flowers from the looks of it.
