Sophie, Almost Mine

Sometimes our paths cross with people that are unforgettable.

Like the first sheriff who pulled me over for speeding,
The first guy to kiss me senseless on the hood of a car.
And the one man that promised me forever.

For me it was Deputy Carter Lang.
Our paths didn’t just cross, they collided.

But his love wasn’t enough to save me when I got sick.
I had no choice but to walk away, he didn’t need half a girlfriend.
Left with only a memory--he was seared into my heart.

Now I’m back, after all this time wondering...
How will it feel to see him again? Will I see him again? Orlando is a big city, we may never run into each other, right? Wrong.
Now I’m left trying to understand…
Can the ALMOST of the past we had turn into the forever we always wanted?
