FLY, By Ryan Guiley May 20, 2015
FLY
My first poem was “Just in Case” relieving my pain,
About the last letter I write to you while we moved,
I gave you the letter while where in the airplane,
I wonder what that letter would prove.
I remembered when you flew to Florida,
I was sick to my stomach sort of,
But you made it safely home and came back,
That was an experience I wouldn’t want to attack.
In 2006, we flew to Mexico,
I was scared but it was still a go,
There were federal agents on board,
I couldn’t wait till they opened the door.
At last, I was on the ground,
It was a new land that I found,
You by my side all that mattered,
The air was crisp and terrain was flatter.
It was time to go and back on the jet,
Newlyweds in love, as my life was set,
When I got back, I was confused,
Always still in love and was amused.
I wonder if you flew again without me,
Did you go far and travel over the seas?
I wasn’t able to hold your hand,
But I bet you looked at your wedding band.
When you come back, we have to fly,
I’ll give you a letter while I cry,
Hopefully, I can manage to hold back my tears,
I’ll be brave, since I got you my dear.
I’m not going to let them take you away again,
My life is broken and can’t begin,
You are my soul mate,
You are everywhere in my mind of state.
