"She was..."
  by A~BENEVOLENT~QUEEN


She was...
As sweet as a cherry on top of promises made
To further the attendance of present accolades
But...
She was...
As hard to get open as an apple now & later
That’s stuck to its wrapper on a hot summer day, but still I tried
As I knew too well the reward to be greater…
Greater than giving up

I tried to see beyond the boredom of the monotony of her
Raising two kids,
Taking care of a dog,
And of course her unattentive husband
Whom she promised to love, honor, and obey
Surprisingly she did it all
Perfectly for 6 years straight
Of course until she met me, it was done with dismay
See I use to tell her that all of her efforts for her family had not been in vain
As she had been the perfect mother and wife, thoroughly trained
For us
For me
You might think that sounds arrogant but,
I had to bring
Some sort of sensibility to what we were doing
Especially when I would focus on that 4 1/2 carat diamond ring
You know the one that resides on her left side
That in the beginning...
She so desperately tried to hide
Two doors down from her index finger
Amazing how with that same finger, she would
Insert…
Taste…
Smell...
And relish the linger
Of us!
It had become crystal clear to me that
Every time she broke her trust, with him
We would become closer and closer, and closer to playing house while singing lesbian hymns
All while grinding of course!
I swear that the more I grew to loved her, the more I felt remorse
For she had fallen out of love with home and in love with me
I had always heard that home is supposed to come first, but that’s just to hard to see
When it was only in the comfort of my arms that she felt complete and free
I promised myself that I would never ask her to leave
Her home,
Her family
Her, financial stability

So I decided that...
After months and months of playing tug of war of the heart
That we should begin a new start
Of
Just
Being
Friends

She was…
Too say the least...
Pissed!
So she made it real clear that she wasn’t gonna just be dismissed

That’s when...
I had to remind her that her obligations to her husband and kids
Far outweighed & were greater than any love, happiness & orgasms that I could ever give
Some days I find myself while caught up in pure silence
Daring to boldly reminisce about that last kiss
That last embrace
That hurt ass look on her face

And as the tears had begun to start
I held her ever so tightly & promised her that she would always have a special place in my heart
I swear to God,
That morning while we were breast to breast outside of Starbucks
I could feel the war that her heartbeats were waging
Damn...
We had ended something so rare, so beautiful, and so engaging
I question sometimes if ending us was premature
Haunted now by her laughter, her smell, and her sweet allure
I will always remember
On that cold day in December
That she was...
And had always been as sweet as any cherry on top of promises made

Always wondered why it was a war...why deeds we deem (unrightous) seem the most natural to fulfill and how living (rightously) almost always means to live in a constant state of sacrifice...anyway, praise is given to words of such that causes the mind to forget all else and focus only on the line ahead...truly a jewel

Usually if someone is hard is taking things slow or won't open up, that person usually gives up, but you didn't cuz you knew in the end it would be worth it..nicely spoken...

And you keep pieces like this from the world? Why?! The passion shared by you both was so evident with each line I read... And the pain from cutting the tie was conveyed perfectly... keep doin ya thing lady
