Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet - so they say, or grin and bare it.
Ah Brandi, This is a grand poem indeed... superb descriptions and word use to detail how you are feeling, from the gut-wrenching and angry built up inside waiting to be unleashed.

Envy in all its green might... The hulk springs out lol! You say at the end though that she can't love him as true as you can... is that what you are thinking, even though He is not your man... or isn't he? An little bit of respite on the something you can't have. The play on words is superb. A really good poem Brandi, and just think... it is his loss lol! Dale :)
