Infidelity

Whispers in a darkened room Two bodies locked in passions dance Lust and longing both consume Exploring hands enhance Sacred vows lie on the floor Discarded with their clothes Craving love, they search for more Trust lost in the throes Sated bodies, guilty hearts Have failed to fill the void Did they really just make love Or was it just destroyed
