The Business Trip

not matter how bad people never see what is good for them

So he gives her
A kiss on the lips
Tells her that
She will be
Missed
Meanwhile
She goes
Back home
Alone
And waits
By the phone

The last time this
Happened was
Before the snow
This time he was
A no show
For almost a year
Because that
Young doe he
Was fawn of
Was near

She keep the porch
Light on
As she silently
Morns
The fabrics of
Betrayal torn
She doesn't know

That raging below is
The fire of a woman
Scorned
Although warned
She keeps the
Amber's warm
Between her legs
Her desperation
Begs
It's a heavy weight
That she boxes
With round by round
As the truth pounds 

On her
She knows that if
She takes the blows
The worst decision
Is a TKO because
She has been KO'd
Before
Battered, bruised
And confused

Are the issues

Wage on

Still
She waits for
The text
She gave him
Good sex
That's what
Men expect
It's something
Women do too
To keep their
Men true?

He gets on the
Plane and is
Not heard from
Again
Until he returns
She later learns
He wasn't alone
That's why he didn't
Phone
So although he
Didn't text
She gave him
What he expects
Good sex
Because that
Is what they both
Expect
But she didn't
Mind

This time 

Because
She got her
A kiss plus
A wish
Despite knowing
This
She wasn't
His first choice
As the other
Women's voices
Tells her
Happy
Valentine

As she kisses his

A*s one more time

I guess we all have choices to make in life. It's sad the woman in your poem is being decieved. It says a lot more about the man doing the deceiving than the woman. Infidelity is an ugly fight, even when you don't think you are fighting it~
