Melody

Took Melody shopping the other day.It had been 4 years since I had done that.Found a lot of old memories that day.She still had the same tennis shoes I had bought her  back then.She still smiles at my jokes and we shared some chicken nuggets.I bought her some gray shoes with pink soles along with some snazzy shorts and a gray tank top.We ran a couple of miles and talked of old times .Time never stands still and although we long for the past sometimes we never quiet can grab hold of it.Every time I see her I say I am sorry a thousand times silently before we say good bye.There are some wounds that will never heal. In spite of it all we remain close. She sees me with forgiving eyes. I see her graduating from college and married soon .She reminds me that I would do it all again for she is so worth it.
