red balloon

red balloon, how you doing.
this helium ride got us flying so high.
flowing, weaving, seamlessly and effortlessly.

i'm tired of games, i'm tired of naivety.
once upon a time, i ran after a bus that was full.
waiting, wishing, aimlessly and regretfully.

no longer the person who believes in fairy tales,
yet the same person who never gives up hope.
cause this feeling is not going away tonight.
wondering, pondering, when was the last time i felt this way.

got us fooled before, but this round seems kind of different.
my cards are on the table, can't you see.
i'm down for hanging in the park, drinking hot soup together.

today we meet, tomorrow we part.
there is no rush in whatever we have here.
this adventure has barely started, with a burning desire to inspire.

no longer the person who believes in fairy tales,
yet the same person who never gives up hope.
my heart is light, free to explore and discover.
let us rejoice, let us be grateful, that we've met each other.

guitar strings, spring rolls, running through the sprinklers -
i want to stay up until sunrise and have beautiful conversations with you.
this curiosity can only be curbed by the absolute consumption of souls.

let us rejoice, let us be grateful, that we've met each other...

What a beautiful poem. The title alone had me drawn in. I often use 'the red balloon' as a symbol in my poetry, so I really wanted to read this poem. It's amazing to see this idea being used so perfectly. I interpreted this poem in a very interesting way, a lot of reminiscing, and I have to say that I really love what you are doing here.

Ah, wondering & pondering - it is a delight to be curious - to use one's mind to wander aimlessly .. or be hopeful, or Full of anticipation.

Going on journeys of the mind can be wonderful; just as travel in a Hot-Air balloon can be a thrill.

And u expressed it well -- very much enjoyed yr #poetry.

P.S. Here's a #poem of a Hot air balloon : >> http://shadowofiris.com/hot-air-balloon-poem

When I saw "red balloon", an old movie I saw as a child came to mind. Nonetheless, a very beautiful poem. Congrats!

thanks man, haven't seen that movie myself. Sounds interesting though.

It's called "The Red Balloon". A beautiful 34 minute film. Here's the opening for you.

I have a red balloon it fly in the sky , I could not see it any more , it was exploded already , I just waste my money , in buying balloon , If I bought it food , I'am now full.

love is freedom of soul, just like flying balloon.
in the wide sky, love is meet of two.
perhaps love is a moment,
or the whole.
Let it go.
follow your heart.
for happiness, sweet, wonderfulness,
even if it's ever.

very nice

I love it especially few sentences today we meet tomorrow we part . No longer the person who believes in fairy tales but yet the same person who never gives up hope. Good poetry 😄
Please check mine?

Rejoice and grateful to you
Greetings 'hi' and 'hello'
Nice meeting you @honeybee
With the beauty of poetry.
More power!

Sounds like a typical guy... Misses the bus and took it really hard.

Then, had some soup somewhere to get over it.

This was a really good poem, because it's really hard to let people go and just be glad they were in our lives.

But, we know that's how it should be.

Today we meet, tomorrow we part.... The deepness of life.

is incredible!! Success !!
