----------

You forgot to remember to keep your promises.

forever following just a step behind

waiting again for another chance

to rear its head - betrayal.

Love is to hand - betrayal is to glove - They go together.

The curse borne by women everywhere

Remembering every slight, real or imagined

And for the men in her life

The effect is worse ~ guilty while never facing trial.

Powerful and well written. Great emotions here. Thanks.
