What a wonderfully written poem and I love the picture. Love cannot bind us in any way, if it is true love. Best of luck with your writing!

Have a great day and God bless.

Hello Diana,
This is an excellent rhymed poem on the topic of deception.
So often one person is blind-sided by the shallowness
of someone they trusted. If only we could see beyond the surface
and into the heart and soul of another.
Your poem says a great deal in only three stanzas.
Song reminds me of Gershwin's Summertime.
Well done
Robert

Excellent a swift and poetic piece bringing a joy of movement and a robustness of idea into a achievable frame of verse the stanzas work well and the concepts are well thought through with good construction and good determination throughout the piece delivers well and has a good direction opening the emotions of it with a well intentioned purpose. It produces a fine and charming flow which brings a harmony to the conclusion and its narrative. It is free and well rounded enhancing the voice through its good word choice and equal meditation.

Geeez, this sounds like my first marriage! He never wanted me out of my sight because he loved me so much, if he saw a male co-workers number in my phone book, he'd accuse me of having an affair. Twenty years after our divorce I was subbing ina middle school health class and showed a video on seven signs of an abusive relationship. He didn't physically abuse me, but he scored six out of seven!

    Sounds a lot like my ex too! Abuse can take on many forms! Most think it just means physical but it can definitely be mental, emotional as well. Major manipulators too. Since he accused you all the time, maybe he was the one cheating and tried to turn the tables to hide his own faults. Thanks for stopping and leaving your precious stars and feedback! xoxo

    Yes, he was cheating....while working in a Christian
    ministry!

    Ah ha! See the guilty always try to take the spotlight off themselves! Glad you found your way out! xoxo

I really enjoyed this poem. Your experience shows. The rhymes are flawless, and the tempo is so smooth. This kinda reminds me of the saying - Don't give the key to your happiness to someone else. Thank you from sharing. Good luck.
Happy writing,
Larry

Beautifully written. Yes, where is that key? I'm sure many have asked. Thanks so much for writing such a soulful piece. With some grace I hope that the door will unlock for many.

    Thank you for appreciating this piece! I should do a sequel piece that speaks about the key to your heart is within your own heart! :). xoxo

Where is the key to unlock this chain around the heart...I would perhaps want that chain taken away from the body. It would be bad enough if it was placed on a person's ankles. No one wants to be a prisoner of love.
