I rest my weary head
on a pillow of despair.
I should have lied, denied.
He knew.
Wrapped close
dragged to the stars
in wild delight
a crescendo of passion
soon spent.
Then shame.
Just once was no excuse.
Trust was gone
into the annals of
what might have been.
I cry myself to sleep,
a million tears
won't bring him back.
Maggie, I am bowled over by the abject pain in this poem..."...the crescendo of pain....."
I believe she wrote "the crescendo of passion".
I love it cusick.
Are you saying that you cheated "just once" or that you are sorry that you only did it once? Or have I completely missed this one? Please enlighten me.
and so she did, individual. Let's not quibble over words.
Then what are you saying?
What am I saying? This is cusick's poem. I was simply giving her positive feedback.
I suppose I should quit now before I get any more confused.
Cross purposes are really quite funny,
The birds and the bees and the honey.
Sorry, cusick. Individual and I didn't mean to hijack your lovely poem.
I liked the poem as well, cusick.

Thank you all for your comments. Individual it was just the once, in fantasy. Sorry Letty didn't want to start a war.Appreciated gustav. Maggie
i think to analyze this poem would do it a great dishonor and that if you choose to then you should look past the obvious words and try to read the feelngs that are the basis of the words
