The AffairA Poem by Christina May ShanabergThis was not really an affair, but it felt like one; my first love, after 14 years in my second marriage. Written for the late Thomas James Diffenbacher!THE AFFAIR
The fires of lust Are fed by the flames of Hell; The veins of false hope Lock us in reality's jail; The blind illusion of love Is a passing dream we share; The bond of frenzied desire Makes us believe we really care; The truth of the fantasy Is a secret that holds us together; The lies of happiness Are the tears of our laughter.
