She took him back despite his cheating.
He promised he’d never cheat again.
Making up felt so wonderful and good
Like falling in love a second time.
Her happiness blossomed like a flower
But wilted and died six months later
When despite his heartfelt promise
He cheated on her with her cousin.
And she went a little crazy and
Smashed his new car’s windows
And its lights into shattered pieces.

Bob Boyd
