Subject: The Affair

I venture through my unbalanced mind
Wandering through all the memories
One always leaps out at me
On my scavanger hunt back in time

I was told to never question, but obey
While down by the lake that day
I was to now live for you, not myself
I placed all my dreams up on a shelf

With marriage vows I was linked to you
Voracious love, felt through and through
Laughing, dancing, eating wedding cake
Promising our love we’d never forsake

A brand new home, a brand new car
Faithful little watchdog in the backyard
But it’s nothing like what I dreamed of
I soon became weary of the labors of love

Every day I would vacuum and clean
The house was spotless, the floors would gleam
I kept preoccupied in a flurry of activity
To disguise how unhappy I’d grown to be

Demolition of the relationship then began
The unthinkable, there was another man
A guilty secret never to be spoken of
Only satisfying desire while cheating love

As if receiving some sort of telepathic clue
One very black day I could tell you knew
You’d seen the truth behind all my lies
I saw the hurt clearly reflected in your eyes

Regretful, I begged for forgiveness on my knees
For one more chance I would constantly plead
I realized what my actions could have cost
And knew that without you, I would be lost

My discretions now forgiven, though not forgot
I marvel at this, you are what I am not
Betrayal placed severe burns upon your heart
But from my side you chose not to depart
