Bettes Story

Beauty, shocking, breathtaking,
Observing, pulse rising,
Approaching, talking,
Jewelry loose, dropping, caught, returned
Approaching, male, introductions, straight,
Going, goodbye, sad, leaving with him.

Thoughts continuous, blond, beauty,
Earring found, envelope, keep safe,
Her! Searching, asking, returning,
Gratitude, touching–no, wanting–yes,
Eyes caressing, leaning, lips touching, soft, gentle
Wonderful, leaving, no! Needing more!

Longing, wanting, needing, seeing,
Hard, still him, always there,
Talking, laughing, calling, dating,
Dinners, movies, conversation, time,
Feeling, love, needing more, wanting more,
Him gone, finally a chance!

Courting, happy, together, slow, fear,
Love blooming, love making, heart soaring,
Heart lost, given forever, loving, building,
Living, together, growing, two souls, combined.
Bliss, happiness, commitment, planning,
Marriage, rings, hearts entwined, love cemented.

Wanting more, family, children, lives expanding,
Trying, seeking, donor, sperm, hard, unsuccessful,
Desperation, rejection, hurt, unknown, continue?
Admitting, loving, needing, wanting, deciding, doing,
Ovulation, wine, candles, injector, loving, inseminating.
Success, pregnancy, ultra sound, heart beating, bliss!

Boring, intervention, nesting, pressure, stress,
Fear, show, provocations, protesting, anger,
Therapy, group, unsure, falling, emotional wreck,
Love failing? Pain, loss, death, pain, pain, pain,
Strong, rock, alone, fear, attraction, temptation, resisting,
Jail, losing control, giving in, loss of self!

Affair, cheating, taking, *****, release, weak, turmoil,
Guilt, want, fear, using, guilt, release, guilt, guilt, guilt.
Success, party, stolen moment, discovery, apology, pain.
Hurt, sorrow, slapping, pain, loveless, rough *****, unconnected,
Holding, crying, loss, leaving, gone! World shattered,
Sorrow, loneliness, emptiness, quietness, alone, so alone!
