The bathroom window

... he was driving a big ole maroon ford - the kind that you can eat a 6 course meal off the dash board. At the stop light taking a left and I was at the stop light going straight. I saw his face and I knew in an instant that was the one I wanted to marry. He was the most gorgeous man I had ever seen. I got to get a closer look about a week later when we just happened to stop by his apartment. My good friend Lori (his sister in law) and jahunger (a friend from hungry that was working at the group home with us) and of course myself. Well I'll be if that man didn't take my breath away. All the way from his long black curly hair, his beautiful blue eyes and his gentle quiet demeanor. He asked me out that night, told me he would be there the next Saturday night and we would go to the races in Arlington. I didn't care much for races, but, I really didn't care what I cared about at the time - except for the fact he would be picking me up!!!
My bathroom window looked out over hi way 5 that was the way I figured he would be coming in that night. I sat by that window waiting for the car to see that maroon ford... it didn't come
and I didn't see it
and he was late - with no call
and I should have known better...
he wasn't coming.........
but he did... I saw that car coming in to town - I didn't care that he was late - he did show... Arlington raceway here we come!!!
