A Winter Regret

The years flew by with
such a pace
That Mary knew with utter disgrace
Her future was bleak and full of regret
Yet all her actions were weighed and met
Her cheeks were bright, rosy, and full of red
Her only thought was who would warm her bed
Not a good time or place to ponder
With her husband below and somewhere yonder
Her thoughts of regret weighed heavy on her mind
No sense in straining for strength to turn back time
She desired the flesh and warmth of his skin
Never realizing she would ultimately fall for his kin
His brother is the antagonist the one to despise
For he pushed and pushed until she would subside
She hated what happened when finishing her task
Not wanting anymore, but how long would that last
Now it was too late for her husband was gone
Only his brother remained to sing a new song
There's no sense in differentiating between lust and love
Infidelity was the killer the push and the shove
What is to happen now that time has lapsed
Maybe tell the truth that would be good perhaps
By now it is dusk and her husband will never know
That the love of his wife was nothing but a mere show
