saying goodbye in Taipei

I'm in Taipei. Asia. But, I'm still saying goodbye to the life I walked away from.
The words are reverberating inside my organs, bones and tissues.
I know the next iteration of my portland life will be different. I want to capture these emotions as they play in my mind right now. At 27, standing in front of an Internet kiosk at gate A8, 2 hours into my 10-hour-layover, waiting for the Colombo skyline to appear in the distance:

Tabor wraps me in the folds of her womb
I slide through her
Recalling the misty morning top
and the dim dusk light
