As I walk through the fog.
The pain of my loss is felt as if a razor has cut me.
I can barely breathe, see or comprehend.
My brain cannot understand what has happened.
When will the numbness settle and take over.
So I can no longer feel the pain.
Only laughter and ridicule for those who bear their souls.
When one in a relationship of two keeps a secret outside the marriage.
There is no hope in a lasting union.
For two wil meet once a week to laugh, hold hands, exchange glances and lust.
This is not a friendship, it is more and kept a secret.
Yours marriage then is none other than two people living together.
When you hear your spouse say "Please don't leave me. I love you"
How pathetic does this sound.
What is she getting out of this relationship? Power, Make another feel pain.
Kind of like a relationship based on S & M only no physical pain.
Well at least I know I am no longer a part of him.
We are no longer one in the eyes of God.
We are not partners.
Is adultery something you are proud of and parade around?
