My Shame Is A Poem That Has To Do With Deceits In Relationships by Enoquin(f): 10:00am On Jun 14, 2010
His eyes still the beating of my heart;
His eyes hold my will at bay;
His eyes commands any yes,
I obey

'Take off your clothes' he tells me
My body tingles as i concur;
He sits and watches me
Whilst reassuring me of his love,

Clad in nothing, i stand proudly before him;
and watch as his eyes light up
I am pleased that he is pleased
I slowly catwalk to him and then,

The phone rings and i watch his demeanor change as he picks it;
'Hello, my heart' he says not looking at me
And i stop in shock,
One leg in front of the other and mouth agape,

Without remorse he continues
'I want to clear these last files'
No words come out from my open mouth
'I will be home soon, love you'

Dropping the phone, he tells me to continue
'Don't mind that nag, i had to pacify her'
'You deceived me' i finally say
My voice nothing but a whisper

He smiles, swearing his undying love to me and abusing 'the nag' in one breath;
And yet,
Yet he steals a glance at his watch,
and my shame is complete.

Slowly, my hands cover my bosom
And slowly, ever so slowly i pick my clothes,
No! My tears will not fall here,
I will leave with my head held high

And that is how i leave
Naked, but with my head held high,
Although i can't explain the tears coursing down my cheek,
They must be tears of anger at myself, and my shame!
