Did you think I wouldn't make our date?
Did you think that a new romance held me back?
Or that with my wife, making love stopped me?
You're wrong! I arrived and there you were, so pretty.
In stiletto heels and a fiery dress,
hair down and look in love.
It was then that I understood how much I am loved,
and I wanted to hug you, but I was stopped.
I had no right to cause you any more pain,
I hid behind a tree, tears on my cheek.
A drop of rain fell to the ground at that moment.
I longed to cover you with my embrace and warmth,
to confess my love to you without further rancor,
but I could only love you in secret regret.
