Married Woman


I am in love with a married woman
she's smart, funny and kind
I am in love with a married woman
like a possession I feel she's mine

I know it's love, I think
as I watch her profile laugh at a
soon to be forgotten sitcom on channel 5, 9, or 12

She doesn't know this but I can't stand
this program and my eyes that were watching
her mouth laugh move to her uncovered little feet.
I sit on the couch to be with her...
this married woman

I hear her children playing upstairs
and my concentration breaks
my attraction to her grows
and my gaze goes from her toes
out the window

A gecko nervously pulsates his head from the
base of a tree, looking for that mate to be

I hear another giggle and refocus my
attention, now she's looking at me.

Her eyes I see and this married woman is
still a mystery.

I'm glad I wed a young girl over 10 years ago
so that this married woman and I could let our love grow.
