The Mistress

Thankfully number two, she’s contented with it Hides when the landlord comes around to feel smart with the game Endless calculations and planning, giving unfaithfulness a honey taste Master strategist in creating spare time no matter how little In order to steal and passionately enjoy what she doesn’t deserve Shares the comfort and heartbeat of another without any bother Theft of the body and emotions, becoming another woman’s problem Romance becomes raw, athletic with the flavours of adrenaline Emotions may set it, then the pleasure gradually progresses, she Sows immensely in trying to beat the actual owner Seemingly to stop being the accessory, the sharer and the spare.

Very true verse having low self worth makes ones life very hard, no matter how it comes about we should fight to believe [for it's true - we are as good as anyone else - can be - if we'd only believe] Thanks for so often stopping by my verses. Light & Love

A hard role to play the Mistress...I like that, romance becomes raw, athletic with the flavours of adrenaline...well done.

Funom, I do not like the idea of mistresses, it is too deceitful but still your poem was well penned, excellent 7 and thanks for visiting my poem, its summer, yes I did meander on. . .

This truly speaks for all the 'mistresses' out there. If only a lot of aging men going through 'mid-crises' could feel the same; as you do and think twice about courting a woman who is 'worthy' in his mind to use. Great imagery and being a great read it was a pleasure to delve in and read between your lined word/work! Thanks for sharing....didee

A top7 rating for this excellent poem, Funom! Number two appears to have it all, but in reality she has nothing! I can sense dark clouds creeping up! // paul

These relationships can be so alluring, until they are not! Trouble waits around the next corner, still the heart wants what it wants. Well captured here!
