Someone else's Scott.

You're married
and i shouldn't be
falling.

  But if innocence
turns to heartbreak
  i'd rather have you
hate me than
complicate yourself

Author notes

The term scott is a name i've given to the interest of a married woman... it started with some friends, but well i won't get into it, this is very personal, probably the most personal piece i ever have and ever will post here. BTW my name is not scott.

    Dear Scott,

    This is quite a secret, and I can relate in my own way. (Thoughts about someone I shouldnt have been thinking about that never turned into actions) And I admire that you respect marraige enough not to tell her you love her. I thought it was funny in your author notes how you explain the term scott and then go ahead and tell us again that your name was not Scott. So... forgive me but I just had to call you scott because someone had to be dumb enough to do it!

    Sarah

    Lovelovelove. This is one of those short pieces that has a lifetime's worth of a story behind it. Not many people can make such an impact with so few words. Amazing write.

    Falling for a mrried woman? Great write. I loved how you told me everything and showed me nothing. Clever.

    I'm happy you gave some info in the author's notes - nobody else is doing that in this contest!

    I also love the message - it's wonderful that you care enough to want to keep things simple for your desired's sake.

    Definitely a great write and an interesting secret.

    Thanks for entering!

    In the second to last line, did you mean "than" or "then"? Kinda works either way. Been on the other side of this- tough to write, huh? Good stuff.
