Poetry Challenge Day 17: Exotic

Let Me Take You

Let me take you to a place
A destination where dreams reside
No passport needed
But the cost is steep
    We’ll discuss the fee later

You can fall in love, again
Capture endless childhood energy
The only reason your heart will race
Is because of the way time is spent
    It will feel like a forever instant

I warn you now, though
It still rains in exotic places
Thunder cracks over all beaches
This time it is your choice to stay
    Standing in the downpour of sorrow

Are you ready to go?
No, there is no train or boat to catch
All I need is to punch your ticket
So you can give up your desire for today
    To live your life in yesterdays
