Betrayed

Woman weeping wondering why
Distraught she is betrayed
Faithless fellow flirtation foiled
Much to his dismay.

Revulsion, Retribution, Revenge
Feelings so abhorrent to her life
Lying, Licentious lecher
Has disillusioned faithful wife

Adoring , Absolute adoration
The sun shone from his eyes
How hard he has hit her
With his philandering and lies.

Beast , Betrayer , Bastard
The thoughts she has of him now
Pathetic perpetrator pleading
Desperate to escape the row.

Marvellous marriage muddied
Her heart broken and in pain
Wonderful woman, Wronged ex wife
Vows never to weep again.
