Short Poems

Taste Of An Affair

So sweet and innocent,
So pure and delicate,
It seemed so pleasing and tempting.
One taste,
And you were hooked.
Hooked like a drug,
Addicted like a druggie.
Searching for a taste so unique.

Going in,
Was never the plan.
Being seduced,
Wasn't an intention.
But the aroma,
Was great upon the nose.
Trucking the brain into lusting,
Then,
Tasting.
Savoring it,
Slowly.
Enjoying the bitter sweet of the whole.
Hunger,
That once was quiet,
Now comes alive.
Demanding to be fed more and more.
Hurting those around.

The feeling,
Over time,
Became desperate.
Hoping,
You'd get caught,
So you wouldn't have to sneak anymore.
The man you loved,
And the man who was your Lover.
The lover,
During the day,
And at night,
Your man.

The lover,
Thrusting and whispering things.
Things,
Your man used to say,
Making you cry the silent tears.
Making your drive home,
More sorrowful.
Missing your husband.
Coming home to him,
To shield your body.
Just so he wouldn't see the marks upon your inner thighs.
The marks hidden under each breast.
The fat lip,
From being bit.

The once sweet thing,
Now...
This terrible,
Disgusting secret.
Addicted to the sex you missed.
Yet...
Living double lives,
Wishing to go back to the norms
Of your marriage.
