Wants To Know

I held her as she wept my dearest friend afraid of disease more than discovery yet unable to let his man go that she loves so much talking huge chances he comes to her home when her husband is gone many times they sit on the porch and smoke and talk she puts a bench across the stair bottom in case the young ones come down yet she cannot stay away and is now convinced she will pay with disease and she weeps we get in my car and go to the doctor she cannot stop crying crying so I tell her story and we get some attention medication she will hide from her husband blood tests she will not quit she just wants to know
