She waited for him by the lake
After he promised to meet her there
But he was lying naked on my couch
after he was done fueling this affair

She has no idea about why and when he touched me
but she will wear a wedding ring, with his name on it
so I wore his marks like rubies and diamonds, for one last time
before his touch becomes foreign
This is Scene 10 of The Altar I Was Denied, a short story in form of poetry.
