I made my husband

Prove his love

In a million ways

I said

It is fine with me if you have sex with someone

A very good idea, I insisted

Then I left him alone with a woman

Who he proceeded to sleep with.

When I screamed bloody murder

He was bewildered

Said you told me to do it

Yes I agreed

It was the only way to discover what was in your heart.

But over the years I have changed

I don’t test my husband’s love any more

And I no longer want to see into anyone’s heart

It’s enough for me

If they talk a good game.
