DIRECTION’S WEEKLY WRITING CHALLENGE: OPEN VOICE #6
Meet You All Over Again
I cry these tears that won’t go away.
When I think about you today.
It turns into every day I do.
Think about you, it is
almost like the silence
I wish would just stay quiet
but it keeps getting louder.
I know it may be far away
And you can’t hear a word I am
Saying, but these tears are watering my eyes
And I cannot stop them from growing.
They water the flowers I carry on my shoulders.
I wish sometimes they would just grow.
But going back to the start
May not resolve all that is coming up
But it will at least give me some answers
And I know these daydreams
Are catching up with me.
I know my mind speaks
And my subconscious continues to think
It is like my mind knows more than it is letting on
More than I could ever say out loud
I want to be able to be at the same place
I once started at and I know it has been a while
But I would give anything
To switch the time back
And I would like to go back
To the years before now
I want to go back
To the ten years before now
I want to be able to have walked the halls

And not have found my way
I want to ask more than my best friend at the time
For directions to the big gym
I want to have met you all over again
Even when school already started
And I didn’t get to see that first day
It all began, I know I can’t turn back the clock
But if I could, I would set the time back
I would go back to the day a girl in high school
Met a boy and they started to play volleyball
And then one day she sat on the bleachers
Not wanting to participate in the game
And that same boy coming over
to ask why aren’t you playing
And then they begin to have a conversation
He asks her when is your birthday
And she tells him
The month and the day
And the year
And he tells her the same thing
I just wish I could get the chance
to meet you all over again
If I could reunite with you
In the time we have left to come
If the reunion will ever happen
I am looking forward to going back
And I know I will soon
I just hope it is not too late to tell you
In person
That it has been a while
And that I would love to start over
Because I think I could
Meet you all over again.
