This takes me back to
where it all started
three years ago
french toast bacon brekky
in a Melbourne cafe
walking around St Kilda
exploring possibilities of living here
it didn't last long
the next day we moved into a house
in Fitzroy just off Brunswick Street
the only way to end our endless party life
was to move out
book a flight to Tassie
and see what it's all about.
Sunday morning beach walk
meeting friends for breakfast
Albert Park boardwalk
picking up pieces
of running conversations
white boat watching
sitting next to the pier
I remember losing
my heart to Melbourne
to the people, the memories made here.
I can't believe it's been two years
what has taken me so long
to come back to Australia
land of wonder
where falling in love
is a daily thing
and freedom is the key to happiness
skies are always starry
storms heavy
bright moon
night night
