I'Ll Not Marry Again
I made up my mind.
I'll not go there again.
The marriage institution
Too expensive to cater for.
I'll not marry again.
Once beaten twice shy.
They say.
I have believed what papa told me.
I was not too young for it.
I was not poor for it.
But never met her satisfaction.
I'll not marry again.
Were it not for my friends.
I could have gone nutters.
All my rights were her wrongs.
I loved her but....
Not an element of love left in my heart.
I won't love again.
A better leaf I thought I was turning.
But I was wrong.
I won't marry again.
Mama expect no grandchildren.
An adoption can do it right.
Let me follow my heart.
I won't marry again.
@Tha Formidable Cheru.
