Marriage

So many ages 
So many cages 
Lived to tell 
A story of kiss and kill 
It was a look and a kiss on tempting lips 
Followed by a hug of ample hips 
Time stopped frozen 
For him to be chosen 
Not knowing the next 
Just feeling the best 
Didn't take long 
To know he was dead wrong 
Fell in a crappy trap
A sneaky snare set up by a lethal tramp
Too late to scream or cry out
He is done, not doubt
They call it Marriage 
When it is life Miscarriage .

Sound poetry like a mid night song scrubbing the mind to peace and comfort. I love everything about this page and a 7 definitely.
