Montana and I are complicated lovers.
We should probably move on.
But I cannot.
There is something about waking up in the embrace of mountains...
of hearing nothing but the very distant car
interrupting the slow inhale of hills
and the long exhale of sky.
It takes my breath away
but gives me its own breath.
And so I breathe easy
as I take in winding dirt roads.
I breathe easy
as on cold mornings
when you can see your breath leave in puffs
like lost clouds trying to find their way home.
I breathe easy
and I know this will always be,
in some ineffable way,
home.
