[hometext] => Is it right to remain in a loveless marriage if ONE partner falls out of love? Who is right and who is wrong? if anyone at all?
[bodytext] => The Affair Two people,... individuals, yet I love them both Two souls,... linked together, since they first betroth Thirty years down the line, cracks begin to show Some that needn't really be there, some she didn't even know How I hear the pain in his voice... as he shares his secret fears I can feel the trauma in his heart, as I watch his tears....... He has fallen out of love, which is as painful for him,... it seems As being left by his loved one, the woman of his dreams For he has found another, a love younger than his Wife She tells him ALL he wants to hear, she's young and full of life She makes him forget all the things, that bring him troubled times His time with her is romantic pleasure, true bliss,... happiness sublime I try to explain to him, to help him understand This new found love,... won't last for long, this walking hand in hand It isn't LOVE he feels inside for his new admirer today It's lust and mixed up feelings, which make him feel this way How do you TELL someone you care for, this is all one big mistake To give up their dearly loved ones, its NOT the road to take Its not just his wife he's hurting, it's his family, children too But this young lustful admiration, he feels... is enough to see him through I want to EAT my words one day, and tell him he was right But we ALL know that won't be the case, as he walks off in the night Will he ever truly realise? the pain he leaves behind? Does he know the devastation left? can he leave with peace of mind? Months passed by now, and guess what? I of course was right SHE left as fast as she had come, back off into the night Not before she's wrecked a marriage, a family and peoples lives Did she even stop to think about this affair, they did contrive? I am left to pick up all the pieces, that belong to BOTH for whom I care To guide them through, support them both, through this brief affair The damage done, time cannot heal, but wait SHE does forgive It's HIM that doesn't wish to make up,.... but a new life wants to live So was it that young admirer, that stole his heart away? Would he still have been with his family and Wife happily today? I fear now it was far deeper than some flattery which stole his heart I feel that it was written, these childhood loves should part So was he so wrong after all? When he made his choice? After all she had no say in this, he left, she had no voice Maybe he was being kind, to leave her in this way? Because it seems affair or not LEAVE .... HE WOULD ONE DAY!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
