Married Man

Married Man

A Poem by Frieda P

Married man, why do you entice me so
you promise me beyond the moon and stars
when we both know they're not yours to give
sweep me off my feet, dance me, romance me
pale azure moonlight is so thrilling and inviting
my mind plays a melody, an old tune of betrayal
have lived forsaken, been on the other side of midnight
I say without hesitation, 'sorry, my dance card is replete'
yet, I can't help myself but marvel at what 'could have been.'

sometimes, our feelings to someone are stronger than our control. let me say, love is sweet but at the same time it learns us how to be selfish. we get selfish when we love someone wanting them to be only for us. we love them to feel selfish twards us as well. this is the fact we try to ignore about love but it is real..
very nicely penned..

yep, same here, but then steer clear.
Now, if this piece is speaking about a married man promising to be with a single woman, I have seen that before. My mother has been dating a married man for about the last five years. He said she brings him to life, and he only wants to be with her, but the time is not right.

Maybe its wanting what is already taken. Maybe it is the fact that he is a bread winner or that he can be a protector. Mostly, I think its because they are forbidden.

I hope I haven't interpreted your piece wrongly.

Thanks, true story ;-)
at least they know how to show a girl a good time and how to shag...."yeh, baby" i'm not sure what to feel about this piece, because i have a very, very low opinion of married people who cheat on their partners. good solid write, though.
