I hope you don’t expect me to try to understand,
pretend not to notice the ring that’s on your hand.
I wish you never touched me, made me feel this way,
as much as I don’t want to, I’m ending this today.
How can you just act like everything’s all right?
hold me in the day, and then go home to her at night.
It says a lot about you, and who you are inside,
how you seem at peace with the secrets that you hide.
At night I cry for her and I then I cry for me,
I wonder if she also knows both sides of you I see.
You don’t love us both, she doesn’t even know,
for shes the loving wife, so that makes me the ho.
I’m better than that, I know you would agree,
I will move along now, but bring your memory.
Now you can go home, to your pretty little wife,
goodbye my secret lover, have a happy life.

Man wow. Yes there's so much emotion in this. I can't tell if this is anger or true words of joy. Such a complicated little poem you've written! Man, just great.

Ringing true
I've been there in a way. Very descriptive. Good expression on how you felt when you were writing this.

Very beautiful piece you have penned here!!! I think that breaking off a love affair like this would be incredibly hard. There has to be that part of you that wants him to chose you!!! That wants him to stand up and fight for you!!! Even knowing that it would be wrong since he spoke sacred vows.....

Another excellent write. THis write had excellent rhyme, rhythm and flow. Your words made me feel like I was a fly on the wall watching you put an end to this relationship. You have a great style of writing that I enjoy very much.

Thanks again!
That is so funny that you say that, when people ask what my style of writing is, I say "fly on the wall"....I write in a tone very similar to which I speak, which I know to some people (writers) is NOT poetry, apparently Im not supposed to speak, Im supposed to paint a picture with words....Im very glad you enjoy my work, and my un-refined style! Thanks again!!

True story?
Again if it is it's another I can identify with! God I'm bad lol!
I really like your style of writing - from what I've seen so far at least. It seems very simular to my own in that it talks of real life and love.
Really enjoyed this write. Loved the emotion and the honesty. Easy to read and easy to understand the situation and how it made you feel.
Think I'll read another of yours now

STUNNING WRITING. I LOVE THIS. THE FLOW AND THE POWER AND EMOTION IS STUNNING. WONDERFUL WORK. MORE PLEASE

That's a tough poem, if a true one, I'm sorry, though it looks like you know what must be done. I wish there weren't things like infidelity and dishonesty, unfortunately, I don't live in a dreamland and I know such things exist. Another honest,insightful poem.
