A Wife's Sorrow

A WIFE'S SORROW Your words are like knives That cut through my skin. My head down in shame Hiding the tears within. I tried to hide my mistake You were never meant to know. How did you find out? I made no outward show. That affair meant nothing It only happened once! I admit it was stupid, I acted like a dunce. How can I fix this? I want to make it right. No please! No don't! I'm out, in the cold dark night. My marriage is over. He didn't give me a chance. Through the window I saw him, One last look. One last glance.
