Love Poems

My Husband Cheats. I Look the Other Way


My husband cheats. I look the other way.
For the children, of course. I myself am worthless,
Stupid. Humiliation suits me. Each day
I steel myself for words each day more vicious.
But you are like a rainbow in my sky.
I look at you and know life can be good.
You call me gorgeous, I don't wonder why.
And happiness shines through me, as it should.
You, too, bear a cross: Your friend has cancer,
And you will not desert her. I agree.
Our love must be a question, not an answer,
A distant light on hills we cannot see.
Perhaps we are both fools to sacrifice,
Yet in such love is where true beauty lies.

Yes you can do better and it is out there for you. You making everyone else happy but yourself.It's just not fair to leave all that inside. Leave him because he don't deserve you.And he will just keep on doing it untill you do something about it,or tell him about it.
