The Six Words

Posted by jessbabe on Thursday Feb 18, 2010 Under Sentiments

A little high, a little tipsy.

Current song playing: Sweet Child of Mine by Banda Do Sul feat. Natascha
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long
I’d probably break down and cry

Tonight is probably a walk down memory lane.
I remembered the salted egg crab that gave you and me a bad time.
I remembered the song you were excited about.
I remembered playing a card game called Balls.

Tonight,
your purple shirt, your accent, your face, your stroke struck me.

Tonight,
I fought with my memories.
Memories of 48 hours replaying in my head.
Tonight,
I had a hard time calming myself.

Tonight,
I made a wish.
A simple wish I wrote in a red lantern.
A lantern I released to be heard in the heaven above.
Santa answered my prayer once,
this time,
I wish the heaven above read the six words I wrote.

This six words, the most selfish wish I could ask for tonight.
I didn’t want happiness, prosperity or good health like the others.
Tonight, I just wished for this six words to come true.
I don’t want love,
I don’t want possessions,
I don’t want solace,
I just want to be in your arms again for one night.
