This is absolutely lovely.

“What they were doing was taboo, even

forbidden in the confines of a marriage.

It wasn't an affair.

They hadn't slept together or

done anything scandalous.

They cared about each other deeply” ~ ❤️

I love your poem! It reminded me of a woman with another man, a connection made of glances and laughter and then a cold rain without an umbrella. Laughter crashing. Thanks for reminding me, let's read each other if you like, have a nice day!
