The Shores of Alone

Dedicated to all my sisters in this same difficult place...


You must have a strong heart
to love a married man.
You are alone most nights.
You rarely have a holiday companion.
You subsist on a minimum of love.
You have plenty of time to write...

You must have a strong mind
to love a married man.
You feel abandoned all too often.
You feel that no one cares (at least twice a week)
You learn to despise Sunday.
You grow to be obscenely understanding.
You ache inside, constantly.

You must have strong ethics
to love a married man.
Some will disagree, but here is the truth.
Your heart was stolen without regard.
You have to call upon your inner angel
to fight the urge to call him.
You struggle daily not to tell her he loves you.
Your better judgement prevails, and you do not...

You must use all your inner strenghts
and some you didn't even know you had
to keep from begging him to stay...

I personally do not know what this is like...but doesn't sound like any fun!!  I could say a lot of different things but I wouldn't know where to begin!!  Good writing!!  I hope things work out for the best for you!!

Take Care,
Bridgette

Once upon a time there was a light in my life, now theres only love in the dark, There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart.

Interesting concept...and what are the requirements for a married man to love a single woman? ha...ha...or perhaps a married man needs to write that one...don't ask me to write it because I'm single...James
