Too many people can relate to this. Good job

Love the line “their new comfort found in flawed strangers”.    Something everyone can relate to but said in a new way.


Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that.

A tale as old as love itself

Their love fell cold &amp; lifeless

Their passion was fire ever ceaseless

They remain at peace resigned to no forgiveness



A male with a soul from yesteryear 

His ambitions are tired yet fearless

His body becomes a false love’s place of rest 

He speaks aloud but words fall on a deaf ear


A female with more love to give

Her false love won’t pay attention

Her heart sings a song of neglected pain

She finds short comfort in Him for Her passion to live


A tale as old as love itself 

Their love is one of lust and dangers

Their new comfort found in flawed strangers 

They part ways at peace with infidelity’s breath
