duplicity, unrecognized

The time was fall yet it yielded an unusually warm sun.
While the leaves fell around her, he stood by her side.
As the sun set and two became one,
Little more was wanted as they vowed to one another to abide.

His axis was altered as he tipped his sun to her horizon.
Shade came to him but her glow brought him warmth.
Still, she planted a dark seed but he was none the wiser,
the moon bent to her will as she began to transform.

Spoken frustration, secret whispers; her morals gave way to the heat of the moment
Intoxicated by a new advance, she enticed him with improper reason.
As her heart raced forward, her vow lay broken behind her. 
From eternity, one cannot claim a refund.

In a sea of sheets
friction created heat.
Inhibitions began retreat
and yielded a lie, discrete.
Integrity began to deplete
in a wave of lustful deceit.
She took emphatic receipt
as she came complete.
...if only her will was concrete.

As adrenaline faded, reality would set in.
Harbor the lie or set it free?
The chance was not given to the second.
The lie was embraced; dutifully.

She would only exonerate herself
for she had no guilt from within.
Her head danced in complete apathy
as her drive home would begin.
If she woke him, he would not question where she'd been.
Carefully she slipped quietly into bed still dripping wet with sin.
