I Believe Words Are Powerful!
I like to think...
That I am a writer. With romantic inklings, and clever prose begging- no, screaming to be released upon paper.
It makes one wonder,
But now, after reading this, you realize...
"For the second time in your life, you are a virgin."
For over half a century you have loved each other, and when he sent you the email with the subject line that read: My Song for You, you knew how hard you would cry when you listened to it. It didn’t matter what song it would be, but it was Joe Cocker doing John Hiatt’s “Have a Little Faith in Me”. Cocker sober and cleaned and healed. So you cried all day, sweet aching sobs that filled up the house and all the empty places that the one you married instead of him put there. You’ve got a weapon against that emptiness now. You fought it so hard for so long alone, these last 20 years, and now you have your Cherokee boy from that half century past rushing in to bear you up. It is pure, pliant, giving kindness to be able to lean hard into that old love and trust in who you are, in who he is. A man of ethics and compassion, and an abiding truth you saw the first time his dark eyes held yours. For the second time in your life , you are a virgin."
