One Way Ticket

by Meme   Jun 12, 2012


I tasted the rain coming down
your face when you thought I
still have terminals to cross,
and many stations to pass by.

But remember my love that
with the breaking dawn of my
lonely yesterdays I packed my
emotions and came to your door.

You marked the beginning
of every new breath I took;
unknowingly, you set the
pace for my heart to beat.

And like those yellow brushes
of a morning sunshine; I was
invulnerable, and almost free
knowing I have you by my side.

All that was scattered of me
my heart, my soul; I managed
to collect, only to be able to buy
a one way ticket to your heart.

You have loved me like you
never had before. But its when
I loved you I realised that in you
I found the last stop of my life.
