It should have been only a fling
A one night stand
A result of years of curiosity
Proof of what I am not missing
I was supposed to see the truth
That the one I am with is the only one for me
Yet fate can be so cruel
For now my life is in upheaval
I learned something about myself
I learned a little more of who I am
I tried to incorporate that into my life
But my husband is not the other man
I love him with all my heart
His pain I cannot bear
After the initial betrayal
My life I tried to take
Thought a lesson here I learned
Never again would I stray
Yet day by day the yearning grows
Its harder every minute to ignore
Its not the feel of anothers arms
I dont want intimacy
Its the control the other has over me
My total surrender
I cannot find the words to explain
Daily my strength leaks from me
Sadness holds me down
As tears dry that can never be shed
I dwell upon my past mistake
Its only been a year next month
The feelings I experienced than
I cannot replace
I betrayed my husband
I betrayed the other
And even to this day
I am betraying myself

Very nice write, to a betrayer who strays from a marriage made, tis no pity. From one who's been on the other side.
Thanks for sharing. |
