chief of something important in the world of oil exploration
and

they fell in love holding hands and kissing so much they
needed

treatment for sore lips.

He grew tall, and she swayed like a palm tree in a tropical
breeze

this was love they both been married before and felt like
the god

of amour`s arrow had shot them again painless they thought.

She had grown children he had none when he was 52 the
mortality

knocked on the door he wanted a son she could give him none.

There was young woman nearby and when his wife was visiting
her

he fell on the threshold of her door into her arms, and she
became

pregnant, a love story came to a screeching halt.

 The woman he loved
left, but he had a son with woman he didn`t

 care for, he found
salvation in work she – the woman he loved-

 lived with her mother
in Cote de Azure stuck with an arrow stuck in her

 a heart that no other
man could remove.

Then a knock on her door, he stood there with his child of,
she could not

resist and forgave him loved his child too and they both
lived long and

 when full of years
were blessed with a beautiful death.
