Playing Game Can Kill.

The girl who put up with a cheater.

He had three girls on the go.

And obviously one of them was her.

She found out about the other two

by accident one day.

She had been with him for a few months.

And loved his wit and charm

Even though at times

he was a pig.

But for some reason.

Women seem to love bad boys.

And she adores this pieces of s**t.

Even when she found out about

his cheating she forgave him.

Until one day. She heard he had

another and this time.

It turned out.

She was his wife Of 5 years.

And they had 2 kids.

Age 3years and 5 years.

Outwith the other girls,

she knows about. Including her.

Wow. she threw into a rage

and fired all his clothes out

her flat. And even went around

all the other girl's homes and

told them about this guy.

Some laughed in her face.

As they shut the door on her.

And others called the police

to chase her away.

As they didn't believe her

tale.

She even confronts his wife.

Who told her she knew all

about his bits on the side.

who they were and everything.

But he always came back

to her every night.

That was the last straw on

the camels back.

She went home to her flat

and slit her wrists that very

night.

Poor Rose, died that very night

broken-hearted, by otherwise

the hands of a nasty evil cheater

who broke her trust and fragile heart.

good stuff. love the title and the story told. you've packed a lot into this deep, powerful tale. sometimes i think that betrayal is the worst thing. no one wants to be cheated but perhaps if we securely love ourselves as God does we won't be driven to the edge no matter. easier said than done of course. stay strong and keep up the good work my dear friend ... :)

Thanks Pete, your a sweetheart, wish life was so easy. Even with god beside your side. Sometimes it does get trying for anyone. cheers. Dawn.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

This one is dark and tragic. Unfortunately all too true as well!

[Onlyme]

Exactly John, sadly it happens to much in this present day. Thanks for your thoughts. Dawn.

Oh nooh I hope this is not a true story though we do hear such sad affairs. You depicted and portrayed it awesomely touchingly and gravely . It's great how you relate and narrate superbly in poetry. But no one should take ones life for being rejected by a fellow human. Kudos.


Plz Pleez do comment/review my newest poem too

[Onlyme]

Thanks sweetheart for your thoughts, and no this is not based on one real person. But on a few mixed together. I have come across in life. And their situations to a strong degree. And of course I will check and comment on yours. Dawn.

Poor Rose is not an isolated case unfortunately. Fragile hearts need care but first we must recognize our own self worth and preserve ourselves. Continue to tell about those things that actually happen, that society wants to push under the rug. When a man has several women at one time, he's just being a man. When a woman does it she's a s**t or worse a wh***. Wrong is wrong.

Dawn, thnx again for the read.

The girl took her life over a piece of s**t; more foolish, you cannot get.
Maybe some people are just too fragile for this life.
Compelling poetic tale, Dawn.

oh this ended so tragically! It always seems like the bad guy wins. And thats completely unfair. Its hard to know that somewhere close, theres always a scumbag getting away and the innocent taking the blame. Thats a sad reality about this world. sigh, if only there were a flip up of the bad and good. Maybe the world would be better, maybe not. But i think its a good chance to take :P

[Dave]

What a sad tale! A shame she didn't love herself as much as she loved him. Perhaps she would have realized he really wasn't worthy of her.

Take care - Dave

[Paul Bell]

In one way, you want her to toughen up. The signs are always out there for cheaters. She found out, she should have dumped him. But this is the finality of betrayal. Sad write.

[Onlyme]

True Paul, but human beings tolorate and put up with so much behind close doors.

[Paul Bell]

Yeah, you never know what's going on behind closed doors.

[Onlyme]

so very true Paul.

[BlackPrince]

If, indeed, this is based on true events of people you know, it is really sad.

Thanks for sharing such touching and tragic story.

[Onlyme]

Reality of live is much more tragic than any fiction tale.

[Chris Shaw]

The deceit and treachery some are capable of is beyond belief. Why would anyone stay married to a person who carried on like this, hurting so many. Your poem reflects the type of stuff you read in the Sunday newspapers Dawn. It happens.

Sadly, it does Chris.
