I packed up and drove into the wilderness because I needed to discover the world inside me, away from all the noise.
If only you’d have come with me we could have discovered ourselves together.
Then I would have returned to the world with you, instead of leaving it behind.

I feel the ghost #train coming towards me.
Sunshine fades to black and I am in hell.
Shadows of animated corpses toil by torchlight.
Men pule in pain.
The stench of death.
The #train carries on down the track and the sunshine returns but I will not forget Hellfire Pass.

She gazed at the #horizon.
Dreaming of escape from this place.
Escape from the dirty dishes and the long hours in the massage parlour.
In her dreams she would float out the window.
And fly through the Bangkok night.
To the glittering palace.
And her salvation.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Craters on fire in the Karakum Desert.
I watched the Northern Lights glitter in the dark near Tromsø, Norway.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to go #sightseeing.

The left wing of the plane dips, its tip tracing the hard straight edge of an office block.
Office blocks are all I can see. Each possessing hundreds of souls.
Modernity diminishing into the blackness of a lost horizon.
We turn towards the ocean, my #journey home and the light.
