Life Has a Way

Thirty years of marital bliss, then she found out this, the horrible secret he had hid so long, his heart was not pure, he had done her wrong. Tears fell softly down her velvet cheeks, she had known of his secret for many weeks. How do you walk away from so many years, can you forget, can you forgive? What will the children say, do they have to know, will it be obvious, will our secret show? Temptation was greater, than the love of his wife, he is old enough to know, wrong from right. Lust is an evil, it has no shame, it can ruin a marriage, it has many names. She is the strong one, she has to be, he is the weak one, now down on his knees. Time can heal a heart, shattered into, but can it erase the memory of one not true. If he is forgiven, he better count his blessings, life has a way to teach us all important lessons. (Made up)
