"After all these years"!
"After all these years"! About 50 years ago. I was young. Of course I was. I was 7 at that time. There was a girl I grew up with, we was the same age. I was 3 months older. So today, I had this on my mind. "After all these years". At age 7 what do you know about love? But, I guess I was unusual or just a in love. For at a young age, my eyes adored her! I was a skinny and not most handsomest in the neighborhood. But what the heck, I said my peace, and told her I love her, and we'll be married, she'll smile but never said a word. So after age of 10, I started writing love letters and poetry. I guess I was a romantic little devil. At the age of 13, we when on a date. She want to the movies with me. I was shy and didn't try to kiss her, and The Beatles songs was on my mind. "I want to hold your hand", but I didn't. The date went well, in my mind, I vision her in my future. A few months later, I found out she was pregnant, I was sad. So I decide to change my future plans. After high school, I joined the Air Force, Over the years, I heard she had many bad relationships. 8 by different men. I got out military, got married and divorced and had 1 . I stayed in NM. 20 years ago, give or take a few years, I was going to visit my family in VA. My mom call me a day before and told me, my childhood crush moms, want me to take her back to NM with me and we can start a life together. "After all these years". I was willing to take the offer. I come home to visit, my mom call her and she came by. I was so happy! "After all these years". We talked, but she didn't say much, I ask her how things, and she didn't give me any eye contact. I said, WOW! So after a while, she left and we hugged. My mom came downstairs with a smile on her face. She said, in a happy voice. "Are you and Cathy, going to be an item??? I look my mom in the face and said "NO"! My mom say why? I told her, "I'm still not what she's looking for , "After all these years"! For some reason, tears came from my eyes. |

"After all these years"!" yup sometimes i think of the love i left behind... but i never ran back to visit her and thanks you just made me think of her there is a world of difference between insanity and stupidity
