a promise kept by Christel Crews"I will not run away"
he said to her
that cold and windy night
And as he left
he walked away taking
with him her heart 01/27/2007 Author's Note: he had to leave, to drive the 3 hours home because the weekend was over... one day he won't have to leave... one day :)

Posted by Tony Whitaker on 01/31/07 at 09:53 AM Ah Christel, can I ever relate to this one. Only I was burned in the end and she could no longer stand the strain of our long-distance relationship and met another! This one truly makes me sad! I hope there will be a happier ending for you! I should never have let her go, too late! |
