Who will be the Eurydice to my Orpheus?
The Miguel to my Connor?
The David to my Jack?
The Michael to my Jeremy?
The Penelope to my Odysseus?
Who will be there for me no matter how many times I've messed up and ruined everything? Who'll run back to me knowing I caused all this suffering? Who'll still be by my side knowing all that I've done to myself and the world and hold my hand with nothing but love in their eyes? Even if I turn back? Even if I left them? Even if I betrayed them? Even if I pushed them aside for some stupid reason? Even if it took me more than 20 years to return?
Even though I am truly in the wrong, who will still be by my side? To look me in the eye and tell me it's okay, that it was a mistake and I can change. Maybe one day I can change. Or tell me it's okay and that nothing has changed between us.
Maybe one day I won't look back.
