Whack!went the sound
of my
face
I stand there
in a daze
bewildered
astounded
I reach up
stroke my cheek
tears beginning to
flow
I turn away
humiliated
infuriated
yet perplexed
whatever
did I do
to warrant this
reception
from this human being
that I love
in a trance
I about face
seizing my purse
I saunter toward
the door
he's already there
water in his eyes
beseeching
imploring
Do Not Leave
tears flowing
from us both
he repents
grief on his face
assuring me
convincing me
it will not
occur again
slowly
I turn around
forgiving
still loving
reassured
it will never
take place
again
This very minute someone has gotten slapped, punched or mentally abused by their mate.

My first try at composting was covered in maggots in two days. I donned a pair of rubber gloves and fixed my compost bin so that would never happen again.

Every woman probably has a similar story, but realizing that the man you love will never make the same committment to you, relieves a great burden. At least it did in my life. This is a story about finding and losing love in a summer resort area.
