| 614. Misplaced Desires Awaken ye men from your foolish slumber Deception hides not from whom you care Stolen moments steal from your own future Lives will continue although you’re not there Sweet kisses consumed from forbidden fruit Enjoyment gained at an extreme cost Thinking fogged by pleasures of the moment Forgotten romance from a time now lost The thrill of newness ravages the soul Feelings chained by situations fly free Those betrothed disavow sacred pledges Trust and honesty no longer a reality Words take on new meaning when hidden in doubt Shame covered neatly in sheets so clean Laughter once reserved only for another The fear of discovery afraid to be seen Fingers entwined become shackles for family Knowing spouses hoping for senses to return Patience resolves to pretend their ignorance Misplaced desires fueling souls to soon burn |
