Ticket to Paradise

The day he came,

I wasn't there.

To scream his name,

Even if he doesn't care.

Dear destiny, why so harsh?

My little fairytale, gone like a flash.

Dear destiny, why so bad?

My dream gone with the wind, making me mad.

Mess with fate's design,

That's what I'll do.

I'll mess with fate's design,

That's what I assure.

I'll turn back time,

Just to have that chance.

To see him from afar,

Even just for a while.

A key to see him,

Wasted with just one call.

A key to hold him,

Gone for I said 'No'.

I wrote this poem days after The Red Bullet in Manila.

The day the ticket store for Bangtan's concert opened, my grandfather bought a ticket immediately.

He's at the ticket store and I'm at home when he called me.

Grandpa: Are you a fan of BTS?

At that time I wasn't much of a fan yet so I answered...

Me: Not that much.. wh---

And he ended the call. When he got home I asked him.

Me: Why'd you ask me if I'm a fan of Bangtan?

Grandpa: I bought you a ticket... But since you said no.. I gave it to the girl standing last at the line...
