The ticket lies in your hand, at the top it is labeled round trip, soon you will board the plane, and it will roll down the strip. In only a brief time I will see you, at the end of your short journey… I’m waiting restlessly, a little bit scared, yet, I’m eager, and I’m yearning… There was a time before when everything felt so right, but will that same feeling return when we meet at the end of your flight? Will I still feel that part of me has been with you all along? Feeling as if you are the only one with whom my heart belongs? I will treasure every moment that God grants me to be with you and if I happen to whisper "I love you", please know that my words are true… When you leave again, it is only my heart, that will be loading the plane alongside you , for I have to live here, and you must live there, and there’s nothing more we can do… And so we shall spend this time together all the while knowing it’s limit, I just wish it wasn’t my heart that was flying with the one-way ticket. |
