 You worry too much honey,
My love for you will never waiver,
I am yours now and forever,
Held together by something greater than time,
Here....
I give you the keys to my heart,
Walk in and look around,
Try not to walk into the dark corners

Some secrets are better left undiscovered,

Look into the laughter compartment,

See the pleasure your presence there gives me,

Embrace the image of you I carry in my heart,

For you are special,
And always will be.
Pass on to the next compartment

The compartment full of love and adoration,

See the beautiful image of you engraved there,

Don't be too confused, darling,
If while there you run into another,
Or maybe two more people,
Or maybe a dozen,
Or maybe more,
It doesn't mean I love you less,
It just means you are not the only one,
I love easily,
I love many,
Some call me selfish,
But as long as you are content,
So will I be.

I am assuming that anyone who sticks around a cheating man is content with that,....I guess. Thanks for the comment

I find this rather sad..someone who gives all and comes to recognise that to accept love with conditions attached is a false love..sad..very sad.

It has some sad aspects to it. But people still accept this false love...isn't that just strange? Thanks for the comment Billy

So sad .....I am so sorry for the person who has to go through this trauma.

Yeah, me too. Thanks for the comment.

Well done, Deb! I enjoyed this poem very much. More than sad like the others found it, I found this to be sarcastic and 'bitchy' and a woman looking for revenge by telling her cheating man that he's not the only one in her heart as he may presume! I guess that is sad in its own way but I like the fighting spirit and it works well within the structure of your poem!!

Happy writing.....Jerry

Thanks Jerry. I was kinda trying to pass on both the sad aspect and also sarcastic aspect. Glad you loved it. Take care Jerry

Another great poem! My favourite lines were "...Walk in and look around,/ Try not to walk into the dark corners..." because it is like he's so false and even though on the surface he's acting open & honest underneath it all he's warning her not to look for the darkness she knows is there. Almost as if he's asking her to deliberately stay ignorant to his betrayals. To be content with a half-love; half-life.

Anyway, I am going to stop rambling to you about the meaning of your own poem and end with: Great job!

hahaha...yeah, loved your ramble though. Sort of hit the nail in the head as far as my thoughts when writing this were concerned. Glad you loved it...I loved writing it....I like trying to write from point of views that I hate sometimes...like a cheating person...its my own way of trying to enter their minds and sort of trying to understand them...weird! Glad you loved it.

I like this poem, and I think it was well written. It reminds me of a friend I've had for years. She speaks of her love so freely as if its real, but her and her husband both have played for years without end, with each others heart.

Thanks. I think people like your friend and my dad(the subject in this poem) are maybe in denial...or are just selfish and don't care for others as wholly as they could if they committed themselves more. Glad you could relate it to someone in your life.

YOUR DAD??

I AM SURE YOU WOULD HAVE HATED HIM BEYOND WORDS....

I SALUTE YOUR MAMA FOR TOLERATING HIM FOR SO MANY YEARS...

I AM SURE SHE IS HAPPY NOW....AMEN !

GOD NEVER FORGIVES THE PERSON WHO BREAKS A LOVES FILLED HEART AND SOUL....

Yeah, my mom is happy now....and safe. It's a bit hard for her but she is trying to pick up the pieces. And yeah, I do hate my dad.Thanks for the comment.
