An Affair of The Unloved and Abused

It started out so innocent,
Just a friendly online smile and nothing more,
There was no way to make anything of it,
For she was on a distant shore.

In the beginning it was only special names for each other,
Not even the wisp of dreams in the skies,
I was her Knight of Light,
And she was my Pretty Eyes.

At first the together time was casual,
The odd catch-up here and there,
But steadily the need grew,
And we wanted to be together everywhere.

At the time we both were married,
With no plans to ever meet,
But all that soon changed,
And a big secret started that we had to keep.

Violence, porn, and physical abuse we had previously endured,
Our respective other halves had mistreated us for so long,
All we wanted was to be loved,
How could that ever be wrong?

For over 1 and a half years,
Our secret we faithfully did keep,
But the pain of being apart became overwhelming,
And daily tears we both did weep.

After such a long time,
We finally saw our chance,
To hold and kiss each other,
And to really feel true romance.

I saved and bought a ticket,
Then aboard a plane across an ocean I did fly,
To be in the arms of my lady love,
And for once happy tears to cry.

I remember our first moment,
The very first glance,
Of our loving other,
For which we took this chance.

Within moments we were kissing,
So passionately embraced,
We desperately wanted each other,
So we drove to a more private place.

As soon as we were inside the doors,
Our heated passion did continue,
Her eyes screaming that she wanted me,
To which mine replied, "I want to be within you".

It didn't take long,
Our clothes so soon flung off,
That even a professional racer,
Couldn't even scoff.

Our naked bodies exposed,
The lust and wanting had already won,
That so very soon after,
We physically melted into one.

We knew it was bad,
And something we shouldn't do,
But we couldn't live without each other,
She needed me so badly, and I needed her just as much too.

It felt so perfect and amazing,
Every touch out of this world,
Our bodies caressing and sweating,
Even our toes curled.

On and on the passion went,
Until the moon was high in the night sky,
After we were both physically exhausted,
We held each other and both started to cry.

We had committed full-on adultery,
And we both knew it was wrong,
But yet we also felt justified,
From all the torture we had endured from our other halves for so long.

She had been battered and bruised in ways you can't imagine,
Sometimes even having marks of black and blue,
But not all the pain was physical,
There was plenty of emotional and mental abuse too.

I had also suffered,
Torture beyond compare,
Sometimes even hit so hard,
I would be left gasping for breaths of air.

So even though we both understood,
That there were other ways to end the pain and strife,
We kept on with our loving caress,
Finally able to truly enjoy real love and life.
