2000 Miles Away

Strange times we live in, huh? I woke up this morning at five. I was home, I was in my bed. I tried to remember what happened last night. Ah right, the wind was cold, it was dark and the stars were out, and I was walking back home listening to Jack Johnson's 'Constellation'. My Dad was on my right and Mom, on my left. We had just had dinner at a friend's place a few blocks away and were on our way back home.

It is but a memory now. I'm here more than two thousand miles away from home again. Tomorrow I will be back in college, back in my hostel. I'm spending the night at my cousin's apartment. He picked me up at the airport tonight. It's always good to see someone you know waiting for you at the airport wherever you go. It is late and I am tired. I miss home already. Maybe a rainbow in the morning will set things straight.

Goodnight.
