Adultress Poem by John Thorkild Ellison

Don't worry, I can see them in your eyes,
The little fishes swimming there, the lies
You told this evening to those other guys.....
I've loved you for so long now, so many years
And it comes as no surprise
You've been deceiving me again,
Nor is there any pain,
Nor tears
Like once upon a time.
In fact, I find it oh so amusing,
Your secret little crime
And all the elaborate cunning of your disguise.

Surely, dear heart, you realize
That whatever you've said or done
On any of your escapades,
I just don't care.
It doesn't matter any more.

Is this the way love dies?
