I don’t know what it is about traveling, but it always, always helps unlock me. It’s been a while since I last wrote a poem and for months, I’ve been forcing myself to think of a good topic. I would start and then stop. Nothing would come out. But now, just with a day’s worth of vacation, I was able to write a poem that made me feel happy! I LOVE TRAVELING!
I want to be with you
Whether in a car
Or at the back of a truck
Maybe with some luck
We can go far
Wherever it is
Wherever you are
I want to be with you
I want to be with you
To Paris or Milan
Through Manila, to Japan
Or just a walk in the park
Holding hands in the dark
On a jeep, in a tram
It doesnt matter what we do
I just want to be with you.
I want to be with you
In the rain, under the sun
With you, its bound to be fun
Take my hand, I’ll close my eyes
Bring me to the next paradise
It might be a minute away
Or even if it’s just for a day
I really want to be with you.
