Abandoned

While there seems no life to live with her 
He flew far beyond the reach of eyes 
For all he disagreed keeps to recur 
Like she will never with him complies 

On her part, she knows how to get his ears
Into her own world of fantasies  
Oh yeah, for many years 
But now, he sees all as fallacies 

Meanwhile, their families are also tired
And can no longer stand the stress of the union 
That they care not what transpired 
Even it resulted to reunion 

"If thou be real file divorce"
But the man wouldn't 
May be he still heart their concourse 
Yet, to stay around, he couldn't 

Lonely with her plight 
Sobbing for her blind date in love 
That now steers her up in fright 
Of the precious regrets she is to live

Thoughtfully, she swims in her deserted views
Positively, she vowed to bear the cross with luck 
Lonely, she drives profusely and aimlessly into blues 
Forcefully, she has to handle the 

Her wards now keep her company 
Though raising them has been so hard 
Many are times she don't care of the cheerful agony 
In all, she duly have learnt to play her card 

Never and ever shall the inexperienced people understand 
The rain of pains she bathe in 
Unless each has been through such to make her stand 
To have been labelled a heroine 

No luck in this case tossing the coin 
No mask as well to cover the scars 
She prays to others, it is ever a Boyne
Even her enemies, not to ever play its guitar

One day, she thinks he shall come back 
Promise see herself, he shall not be rejected
Or to be of lack 
Even when she is been affected 

Then; to him, she will confess 
Her love as pure and true 
Without any weakness 
Or something of worth to start anew 

"I love you so much 
But you don't know 
It seems you hate me 
But I don't care 

You are the zeal 
That can heal
You are the beauty 
That has learnt me my duty. " 

What if she never get to touch
That he never returns to show 
You love is the key 
To place on your face-- a new cheer...
