Judgement

When are you getting married
Why are you still there, at home
Don't you think its time
Time to toddle of you go

I hear those whispers, see those stares
look at her, she must be filled with such despair
look at her, she is all alone
Oh dear no, not a life they would call their own

Yes i hear you, all of you
Yes, i feel your judgements to
I see you staring, with pity in your eyes
You think you know, you don't know me

I am happy, oh yes i am 
Happiest i have ever been
My life, its where it needs to be
I am settled now, so happy and so free
