Confessions Of An Adulteress by Nobody: 5:28pm On Oct 10, 2013

CONFESSIONS OF AN ADULTERESS

You said you took off your clothing to cover me
Just to conceal my unclothedness
I took off my own clothing for all to see
And shed my sacredness

You said you held me tight around your arms
Just to keep me away from adversary
I strayed from arms to arms
And breached our sanctuary

You said you loved me unconditionally
Just to ensure our love evolve
I amorously let myself loved intentionally
And consented our love to dissolve

You called me;
A 'whorific' adulteress
Queen of Infidelity
Shameless seductress
And a murderer of morality

I hereby admit
I shed my unclothedness
For I felt less appealing
And craved to see the lust in the eyes of many

I must confess
I breached our sanctuary
For I felt caged
And lacked the feel of the safety in your arms

I also agree
I consented our love to dissolve
For it felt like poison in my bone
And I needed some passion to inoculate me

*But you must know this*
Your delusions of self-importance & perfection
Obsession for power and control
Failed to make you realise we lost connection
The moment you reduced me to nothingness & a mindless keyhole

You poem is lovely. I liked the narrative technique employed, your diction is excellent.
While reading I could help feeling like this was written by a female. Was it?
Your metaphor, and you ability to convey you emotions is impressive.
Kudos.
