Mistress


I have been the mistress
That you often sought out-

Gave you the love you seek.

Why was my passion strong
That you desired so much-

Was it for love you hadn’t reach?

I’m your substitute from pain
In life’s troublesome world-

To quench a fire from your mind.

Dear Readers:

In this verse, I had used the word "fire" with meaning of "raging/uncontrollable fire." Within the mind, frustration often takes place.

When the mind is filled with confusion about happenings in a man's life (the troublesome world) sometimes a certain atmosphere is all it takes to get started in other "affairs."

Thanks so much for reading my work!
