Years have passed, been high, been low been drifting though the memories past. I find my thoughts stuck on you. Why, cause you were pure, apart from the kind of life I was living and beyond what I deserved. I’d like to explain, but how do you explain stupid, foolish and irresponsible to a perfect soul who never experienced those aberrations. How could you ever understand and forgive me? I was so intimidated by your sweetness and beauty I had to run Martha. After all these years and, for me, boatloads of tears, I had to reach out. Words fail me like they did so many years ago. I’m glad you are happy and life is good for you. If you remember, one fond memory is all I could ask for... Tom.
