My soft white wings are dying
For my husband is lying
My heart is bleeding
Because I saw my husband cheating
I am an angel is what he use to tell me
Now what is my life to be
With so much pain
I do't have his love to gain
Not since my broken heart
With him I had to part
My beautiful wings are dying
Now that my tears are crying
My shadow is all around me
I just wish he could see
That my heart is bleeding
Because he is cheating.

Sometimes you can love someone with all your heart, but if they treat you with discontempt and cruelty you have to let them go. I did this with 2 of my exes although one I didn't love, just cared for lots but definately the one I loved as he did bad things to me and others and although I long for him sometimes I stop myself and I know it was the right thing for me to do. I am much better off now.

Such an emotional write. Makes me boil inside. Nice job! Thanks for entering my contest. Good luck. It’s an honor to have you show your work here!

Thanks for following the prompt to a T,

I think this would read easier if you broke it up into stanzas, just a suggestion.

To test the validity of whether love is still there or not we can apply the
following quote, "Actions speak louder than words." I have spoken with
more than one woman who has been abused and when I ask why she
is still with him they usually reply, "Because I know he love me."
To which I reply, "Real love is not shown through a fist or an open hand,
for actions will always speak louder than words."
You can feel the pain through the words...

Tech: A few of words mispelled here you might want to fix those since
this is a contest entry and some penalize for spelling and grammer.
::cheating, beautiful, no(w), don't::
I used to mod on another site so I'm used to reading first drafts and
understand how sometimes we have to hurry and get our feelings down
before they are gone. I just fixed four errors on my own last write that
I didn't see at first glance. This write has a certain rhymne to it and could
easily convert to song. If you'd be intrested in something like that just
drop me a note and maybe we'll do a little collaboration on that...
