Dancing underneath the moon
Looking into the eyes
of the man I don't love
so desperate to fulfill
this need to be needed
that I can't be with only him
so I each night I say goodbye
he knows my destination
I am not going to work
I am not going with friends
I am not going to my mother's
I am on my way downtown
to party with the loners
and to find someone new
something to excite me
in ways he doesn't know how
Unfaithful... Adulteress
but what can I say?
I am sorry for continuing
to hurt you each time I drive away
only to park at a nearby bar
to meet some guy to please me
I am sorry...
but not enough to stop...
It's an addiction baby...
I just can't give it up...
I want to be faithful,
to love only you..
but I can't
I'm sorry I can not quit..

Very sad poem. So many people get addicted to things like drugs or pornography. Usually you hear men addicted to sex not woman. You can feel the writers pain in leaving her husband to find pleasure from someone else. Very nice write.
Keep writing. -
