The Journey Home

"I..." I stumble for words, my heart feeling like it's exploding in my chest, having so many feelings and thoughts all at once, and not releasing them. "Listen Anna, I do love you, and what happned was real... But I still have my wife and kids back home."


"I know..." She sighs sadly, looking away.


"If only we could've met in another life..." I say sadly, "Things would've been different."
