I believe your problem comes from canceling the separate voices with 
\oneVoice at your time changes. Here is a version which gets closer to 
correct output, although there is a nasty collision between the tie and 
time signature.

*******************
\version "2.18.2"
\language "english"

melody = \relative c' {
  \key d \major
  <<
    \new Voice \voiceOne {
      e'4 d8 e16 c!~ c4 b8 c16 a16~   \time 2/4  a4 g16 fs8.
    }
    \\
    \new Voice \voiceTwo {
      g4 g8. e16~ e4 d8.     d16~    \time 2/4  d4  d
    }
  >>
}

\score {
  \melody
}
