Poetry 3

This is my third sonnet about a man feeling guilty for loving an adulterer. She had treated him with disrespect and turned to other men to be pleased as she was not sexually pleased by her lover.

Infidelity

She was a defying, unattractive little whore,

who was filled to the brim with impeccable lies.

He loved her like no other; loved her with abhor;

she used to be the shine in his willing eyes.

Amelia was Satan's daughter's cursed name

She had a scarlet; cold heart that was rebellious

Amelia was the sobered drunkard that he couldn't tame

because she was too wild, too evil and treacherous. 

She loved him once then she loathed him later

Amelia was not fulfilled with contentment

She was the source that grew his love greater

Amelia, however was filled with resentment 

He tried to despise her, he tried and he tried

He said he disliked her but he lied and he lied.
