The Second Walk
Ufuoma Apoki
Scared and unsure . . .
He walked away like he's done before.
But just in a twist . . .
one of those moments that changes destinies,
he turns around,
takes back the steps he'd taken . . .
With passion burning in his eyes,
he gives up everything,
holds her so tight and says the words - just exactly as he heard his heart say it,
with no apologies whatsoever . . . .
But then,
twas just another fairy-tale gone sour,
Sad to say, as he had expected.
He walks away for a second time.
This time though,
his spirits were high,
his heart light with a seemingly unusual smile that lit his face and kept him wondering.
He'd never have forgiven himself if he lost that moment forever.
