Helen



What does it take to make a woman happy? You have given me everything I could ever imagine, And yet a part of me begs for something more. You granted me this palace of luxury in which we stand this evening. It shouts of riches, of majesty and grandeur, And inside this exotic fantasy I am free to indulge in every possible desire. With all of this, you think you can breech The ever-present barrier that stands between us, That forbids us to love and enjoy each other as husband and wife. Love will forever be lacking in our relationship, And without passion and affection, our bond will always be severed. I was afraid our love would suffer after my escapade with Paris. However, I feel no remorse, no regret for my actions. Being with Paris was thrilling, sensational! I could feel my pulse accelerate, The breath escaping from my lungs whenever he came near! I miss that excitement that Paris revealed to me, And now that my eyes have been opened, I cannot force them shut. My life is empty without such exhilaration. So, we can either maintain this façade of happiness, Or surrender to our failures; But without romance, our marriage will never survive.
