Jessica K Poet I do not know?

Loyal Bride

Ignorance must be stitch inside
Because I've believed every word lied
The price of a loyal bride

On the outward I now hide
Pain crumbling my heart inside
The price of a loyal bride

Rumors spread, but I put them to mute
Saving your name while you covered it with soot
Until blindness wore off my then dimmed sight
And I was shockingly aware they were right

You whisper her name in your dreams at night
I wanna tell you I know, but I don't wanna fight
Afraid you'll leave the commitment we made
For someone whom's body you've layed 

Though truth is no longer denied
I'll still hold to you while you backslide
The price of a loyal bride 

And to my vows I will abide
No matter sleepless nights I've cried
The price of a loyal bride

Justin Bordner February 12, 2013 at 11:42 AM Being loyal to one's own detriment is fascinating, and common - perhaps the purpose of loyalty is to accept, and forgive another's pain & indiscretion, but wheres the sugar in that - we can trap ourselves with loyalty, or we can administer it's credit as a strength and be worshipped for it - its a strange quality - thanks Jessica, for composing lucid art that stimulates my intellect - J.A.B. %

Matthew Anish May 14, 2012 at 4:13 PM Is this a true story or did you just invent it? Any way such things are quite common. Interesting! Peace & Love Matthew Anish

Jay Loveless May 14, 2012 at 10:22 AM Wow, this is powerful. It stabs me in the heart like a poisonous blade and captivates me. No, loyal bride you should no longer lye loyal and in silence. Scream. Yell. Find your righteousness. For if he whispers her name in his sleep, it is of her he dreams. And your time will be wasted. You will find someone else who will be a loyal groom. But for now, this time you must yell and scream and find the truth. Don't let him be afraid to leave the commitment either, because he wont stop..

Sara Kendrick May 8, 2012 at 4:13 PM Staying with someone who is unfaithful is not easy..Forgiveness is not easy but can be achieved..The question is does the groom intend to be faithful henceforth?..If not, is the conditions of the marriage worth staying in a marriage where one will never know if they are being exposed to STD, hearthbreak, etc..Much to think about..Good work expressing the topic..Thanks for stopping by..I am glad that you got a laugh out of my work about the chocolate..Sara

Lucilla Carrillo May 8, 2012 at 2:17 PM This is good, but sad. It is the price that some women have to pay for being a Loyal bride. This is the time when you have to make a choice. Many blessings. Lucilla Jessica K May 14, 2012 at 6:59 AM Yes, very true Lucila :)I thank you for reading it

Michael Smith May 8, 2012 at 8:10 AM This painful to read. Your words so telling. I shamefully admit I used to be the man you write about. The Lord helped me to see the error of my ways. You or the write deserves more than this man can give. Jessica K May 14, 2012 at 7:00 AM That's why we can thank God for second chances! Thank you for your time :)
