Mulberry Street

Trying to remember while trying to forget

By OmarPublished 4 years ago Updated 4 years ago 1 min read
Scenes from an Italian Restaurant (thanks billy)

I saw her tonite

And was reminded of everything that was real

And everything that was right

We were shy with one another, trying the best that we could

And then she cried in my arms, I understood

I tried to show her my heart

And that my feelings were true

She said please slow down

You just don’t know what I’ve been thru

The shame and the anger and those nites all alone, I felt like I’d died

I’m so sorry Anna, please, just a chance to atone, I need you by my side

Give me some time

First to heal then to cope

First give me a sign

So I can continue to hope

She let me in for a moment and I touched her sweet face

And it all came back to me, this is the place

She’s my home and I love her

Over the last months, I've gone thru an emotional awakening of sorts, and want to share my experience. I'll tell you a story over the next few weeks (today is 10/19/21) about love and loss, redemption and heartbreak. Have I said too much?
