My legs aren't what they used to be but I still enjoy night walks in the city. These days I have a companion with me too.
In the old days I didn't. I spent a lot of time alone. I would tell you I was a bit of a rebel but I wish I could tell that kid from years ago to have some company.
These days my company is the woman of my dreams. We have two cars at home but we still find an excuse to get out during a fine evening, whether it's for food or entertainment. Back then she was a woman I could only dream about but I finally get to be with her now.
She holds my hand. She walks alongside me. She quietly keeps in pace with me as we listen to the night noises. She follows my intuition on where it's safe to go and where it isn't. She occasionally gives me a kiss and holds me affectionately. I wish I could go back and tell that kid that he will have this someday.
