A Right To Remain
He had a right to remain suffocated by his pain.
She had a right to remain silent about hers.
For better or for worse.
Those were the vows that I had taken with my wife six years ago.
We had lived through the better and were barely getting through the worse. I
tried to face our loss together, while she chose to have an affair instead.
Time apart was what we both needed.
What I didn’t expect in that time was her.
The beauty she possessed on the outside was a far cry from the
scars she was harboring on the inside. She wasn’t looking for love and neither
was I. She just needed someone to help her deal with the pain she had been
carrying around for the past two years, and I was happy to oblige.
I wasn’t supposed to fall in love with her, but suddenly I was
seeing a future that I never dreamed of right in front of my eyes….only to find
that the past had other things in mind for us.
***
I always believed that we only got one true love in life, and
mine was gone and never coming back.
Through the tear-filled nights and never ending days, I was
slowly and tortuously coming to terms with the pain that was my reality.
And then he entered my life.
Tall, handsome, genuine and caring, he was a friend when I
needed one most. Together, we were a temporary fix to our own permanent pain.
Just two people helping each other to get through a very dark period in life.
But when the light begins to shine ever so slightly with each
passing day, and his face is all I can see at the end of that tunnel…..do I run
back into the darkness or move into the light with him?
Ever since I can remember, I have
always enjoyed Creative Writing. There was always something about being able to
travel to a different place or become a different person with just the stroke
of a pen - or in today's world a touch of the keyboard. I am the author of The
Exception To The Rule, An Unplanned Lesson, An Unplanned Life, Drowning In
Love, A Cry for Hope, A Will To Change, Blind Side of Love, When The Chips Are
Down and Easy Silence.
My life is not as interesting as my
books or the characters in them, but then again whose life is? I'm a mom of
twin teenage boys, a crazy Border Collie and a cat with an identity crisis! I
guess you can say writing is my form of relaxation.
