Untitled

A single strand of hair falls across her face,
she brushes it away and another a tear takes its place.
She watches his headlights fade into the night,
Loving him, and know their love is not right.

She's only his lover, and he has already devoted his life,
Two kids, a job, a house, a car payment, and a wife.
She is his lady in waiting, because she's willing to wait.
She knows it's wrong, but she still tempts fate.

What would his children think? His wife say?
How does he explain to her his nightly delays?
Does he kiss his wife like he does his lover?
Does he lie to her, tell her there's no other?

What's a girl in love to do, when it's forbidden?
Take the risks, keeping things hidden?
She still loves him, thoroughout her fears,
Her only answer is to brush away another tear.
