A Tender Place
You find out your wife is sleeping
around.
A time when your world turns upside
down.
Nothing makes sense
anymore.
Her leaving cut me too the
core.
Facts start blending with
fiction.
Your thought is a cloud of
suspicion.
Every truth turns into a
lie.
I see betrayal in my minds
eye.
Reality melts into an
illusion.
My world is dark and cold
seclusion.
Everything dissolves into
nothingness.
Her smile and a dose of
seductiveness.
A permanent cut from a tender
place.
Wipes the smile right from your
face.
