A Letter To My Lover

Dear  Lover,

To  tell  you  this  to  your  face,
will  bring  overwhelming  tears  to  my  eyes.
You,  and  our  complicated  love  affair  meant
so  much  to  me.
The  love  that  we  gave  eachother,
brought  so  much  joy  to  my  heart.
Although,  we  was  friends  for  years.
We  must  now  part.

My  husband,  who  is  your  brother
has  been  in  the  dark  way  to  long.
I  will  confess  our  sins, 
and  pray  the  child  will  not  suffer.
I  need  to  come  into  the  light,
and  be  a  true  wife.
So  please  do  not  make  this  hard.
Go  find  another,  and  start  a  new  life.


Goodbye  Forever
