After I kissed her goodbye, I knelt down with tears in my face

I was 45 minutes late,too late to tell her I love her so much.

At exactly one year ago, I chose Fame over Love

And now I regret my decision to leave the girl, that showed me how wonderful the world is and still loved me though I left her alone.

                                                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was a famous singer and given the chance to be a superstar,

It was not an easy decision to choose my career, but I realized I was a stupid man.

The most stupid  jerk in the world.

I couldn't stop myself to reminisce all that happened.

As I close my eyes, time seems to be moving me back a year ago.

I still remember the time I finally took the urge to confront her with my decision to leave the country for a contract in Australia.

A ten year contract..

We were engaged that time and ought to be wed by the end of the year

But I chose to cancel it all, just for the sake of ME

I decided to tell her over an arranged date in one of our favorite places,

Over the bay in New York that has a majestic view of the statue of Liberty where we use to watch stars shine in the moonlight.

" Hello Babe! " she said with an unusual tone in her voice as she answered my call

" Hi Liana! Can you please meet me at the usual place? 7:00?" I said

" Sure.. Perfect timing... I , I would like to tell you something" she said as she was somehow stammering over those words

" I would also like to tell you something" I said

" Okay,see you babes! I love you!" She answered

" I love you more" I said

Guilt rushed down on me that very moment.

Do I really have to do this?

I can cancel this all and just call her

I would hurt an angel because of what I'm planning to do

Is this the right thing to do?

Or the wrong decision?

No, Luis it's the right thing to do. I snapped myself

I hurriedly prepared for the date, well maybe our last date.

Of course it's hard for me and literally for her

I bought flowers, cake and balloons just to improve the mood.

Then I rushed into the venue where I saw her sitting by the bay

She was wearing a wavy baby blue dress with a white wedge as her shoes

She looks stunningly like an angel but...

I was about to break her heart

" Hi babe!" She called my attention with somehow a stammering in her voice

Despite her blue dress her face looks unexplainably pale

" Hi! " then I kissed her cheeks

She smiled
