I didn’t know which way to turn . . .
I swear - all could see my cheeks burn . . .
In the room there an almighty hush . . .
My heart rate rising - I felt quite flush . . .
My whole life passed by me - it looked bleak . . .
As I might - I couldn’t bring myself to speak . . .
Standing in front of me - a love so long ago lost . . .
A Heart hammering - a pain felt - at all the cost . . . ?
Deciding to keep my dignity - I turned to run . . .
When I heard the words - is that you my “Hun” . . . ?
Transfixed - I was unable though I tried - to move . . .
With head up - eyes glued to the chandelier above . . .
“Hey it’s ok” - you said - so gently - "I understand" . . .
“Please” he said - "Oh come let me take your hand" . . .
“In condolences to all the pain I made you suffer” . . .
“Time has yet healed you - just made you tougher” . . .
“But before you close down and shun away from me" . . .
“Be allowed to tell you - my heart has never let me be” . . .
“I have waited so long for such a moment like this” . . .
“I just cannot - now I have you in my presence miss” . . .
“I promised to myself - should if I ever saw you again” . . .
“To apologise - I felt your hurt - “Honey” - your pain" . . .
“For the cruel indignations’ - which I put you through” . . .
“Unforgivable” babe - I’ve come to my senses - it’s true” . . .
My eyes are now released from that darn chandelier . . .
Now looking into his face - now tired and fatigued . . .
In my anger - I was killing the very one I adored . . .
Desperately - I felt - ripped within me - life’s cord . . .
I looked upon a man - I knew now - meant no harm . . .
My heart held by barbed chains - had reached a calm . . .
A hand twined with mine - weathered by the storm . . .
A heart felt warmth - as together we walked home . . .
