Marriage Is not a Word, It's a Sentence, A Life Sentence

by Golden AnGel Rhapsodist   Nov 29, 2018


Your words seem like carbon oxide,
The poison that got me all the time,
You crushed me, powder like,
You killed this little thing inside.

Skillfully, you made me like a servant,
Providing everything you want.
But me? Humiliated, devastated, and abused,
In front of the new girl, your new muse?

I've been blindfolded with this so called "love",
Until I discovered something on your tab.
Who was with you on our anniversary?
Jennifer, Vivien Or Marie?

I should believed my Mother,
When she said, "the gentle sheep will become a monster.
You will know someone when you share
the same roof"
And dear you are the living proof.

You hurt me badly like a knife so deep,
For all the promises you couldn't keep.
You've driven me to my grave,
Because of the thousand lies you gave .

Why I tolerate you to pretend?
In front of your family and friends.
You said, tell anyone we're a happy couple,
Even you made this heart crumpled.

You gave not your words, but all the tensions,
Letting you do your bad intentions.
Made me numb with all my 5 senses,
With this marriage "a life Sentence."

    Gel, a sad write, not all marriages are bad. It took me to my third before I got it right. I'm sorry you are going through this. You dont deserve to be someone's other choice. I am happy to see you on the site again, I have missed you- hugs and prayers.
