A Shock

A Shock

A Poem by Iz

I walk into candlelight and strewn rose petals
Didn't realize you knew I was coming back tonight
I took the midnight flight because
I couldn't wait to come back home to your loving arms
And your knee weakening kisses
I love how your eyes caress me across a room
And how your laughter beckons me ever nearer

Tonight I was going to tell you about my promotion
I would no longer have to travel out of town
A desk and reasonable hours is what we both wanted
But I guess it is what I really wanted not you
I walk into find you in OUR bed with
A woman who I thought was my best friend of many years

She has the audacity to smile, at me!
At least you have enough sense to blush and look guilty
I don't scream and holler at the two of y'all
I just shut the door, turn around, and leave the house

By the time I have checked into a hotel room
You have called me over 20 times
Each message says how sorry you are
And how it means absolutely nothing to you

I told you at the very beginning
You cheat even once and you are gone
And it matters not how much I love you or
as to how long we were together

I will not and have never stood for infidelity
Especially from MY husband and best friend
I hope you and that woman are satisfied with each other
You had me in more ways than one and now
you have lost me forever

Just because she had the goods
Didn't mean you had to take your fill
Not that I would have still loved you if
you had just sampled them

And guess who's to blame
That's right
YOU
You lowdown, no good, lying, cheating, b*****d
