He Murdered Her For Cheating

Then he shot himself in the head too.

Murdered For Cheating

He dragged her across the dance floor

by her ponytail in the pub last night.

His eyes were green with jealousy,

his face red with rage.

I had never seen a husband punch his wife so hard.

She had been cheating with his best friend.

Out on the road out side the pub,

he kicked her right under a moving car,

shouting, “This time, you’ve pushed me too far!”

By the time the car struck her,

you could see she was already dead.

He just turned, drove home,

then put a bullet in his own head.

Sadly, friends gathered at their funeral,

to pay their respects.

From the outside, they had looked happily married,

no one knew what was coming next.

In the church, everyone prayed they both find peace.

As for the man she cheated with?

He is still with his wife and children,

and they haven’t got a clue.

    No matter how hard a broken cup is pieced together, it can never be the same as before. Without love to expect, there will be no harm.
