Liar

Married to an older body,
Having a very young soul,
Knowing that she loves somebody
Who is very far from her home.

Having some pride she loves it, 
Being prejudiced she hates, 
Having feelings to him but she hides it
Like she is going to turn away from her faith. 

Life seems to be complicated
People around her wear masks
Poverty is overated, 
Being rich means to have no control of your own life.

What she is going to do she doesn't know
But she knows she can't live in lies.
She just knows that for cheating
She is going to pay a big price.
