A Woman's Curse Poem by Anonymous Daughter

How could you
How could you hurt me so
To give her what I held so....so close
The image still hunts me....day by day
Pictures that invade my mind, my soul they lay
Filling my thoughts, they took over
And to erase the image and thought I can never remain sober
You told me you were mine
How could I have been so kind
So naive, so stupid, soo.....me
I utter these words to no one
Now I don't know how to speak to you
The facade I play
The games at bay, so bad I stayed
Now on your arm, my name lays
How could I dream of a world without your touch
How could I live in a world, without your voice
Your arms to keep me warm
The heat I feel when our bodies touch
How could I walk away
How could I
How could I
How could I leave you when I know another woman will soon take my place
How could I
how could I
But it all comes down to blame
which I place on myself
I see the things my heart has caused
I felt the burn of womans curse
Our heart so endearing, so loving
But now what do I have
My eyes and soul are sneering
saying no more, no more, I was asleep
and now I'm woke
Please God; this pain was no joke.
