Where we should Go? We have absolutely no idea Please show us the path Show us our fate or destiny Wherever we visit, wherever we Go They ask Money, They Demand Money Somewhere they ask for tickets Unfortunately Tickets are sold for money Please provide us Jobs Then we will also have some money Then we will also pay But until then don’t ask money from us

No Idea
when i hear the word home i dont think of a brick house or the furniture that lie inside i think of my sisters and my mom i think of my cat waiting behind the door i think of poem book in my purse i think of my best friend i think of my young renegade jacket i think of my collection of concert tickets when i think of home i think of the people and things that make me happiest i think of the things that connect to my favorite memories i connect home to comfort and happiness i dont connect it with brick walls and broken furniture it may bring safety but it doesnt bring me joy and home to me means joy

'home'
Sometimes, I stand in the airport and wait for you to walk off an airplane and into my life again But you can't buy plane tickets with all the stars in the universe and you can't make someone come back if they don't want to By Chloe Elizabeth

Plane Tickets
I fell in love with you in the purchase of a postage stamp I put your face and body and mind on paper The way your hair curls The way you jump with excitement and flap your arms like a kid would on Christmas morning How you were always there to turn to Although I couldn't turn to you because you were never there And by there I mean here, with me, where you should've been I fell in love with the train tickets to you The little orange squares like golden tickets Granting me access to see you To touch you To share the foam of my coffee and laugh with you at the man dancing at the hot dog stand And when you finally stepped through my doorway I swear it was Christmas and my birthday all at once Planting my head on your chest We bloomed and grew to heights I never knew was possible And while little flowers blossomed at the ends of my fingertips they grew on the tip of your tongue as you uttered those words Those words to whom I have told but one; you If I could find a word to describe the feeling of reading the last several pages of a book you know has become your favourite I would tell it to you The hours that we whiled away and the ones that took up the most of our day to get to each others arms before they took another’s all meant something And while the last bitter-sweet pages of our story have been read Know that there's a girl who still writes you You dance on the pages of her notebook And while the postage stamps stay un-licked She sends these poems to you For in her mind you will always stay

Telephones. Earphones. Earplugs. To drown out Baby cries. Engines exhaling. Anxiety. "Don't be afraid" "You've done this before" "He knows what he's doing" The tired. The disagreeable. The impossibly experienced. Tickets. Bags. Smile-free faces. I'm ready. You're ready. Let's go already.
