Red Bridal Gown

                             

                             Once upon a wedding,
                                             There are guests sitting
                             She trails her long veil,
                                             Tears starts shedding
                             Everyone came to tell,
                                             There is no backing
                             She knows she can't thrive,
                                             With culture drive
                             She has two ways,
                                              Only one can be destine
                             Living to born-again,
                                              Or to just survive
                             The walls of her home,
                                              Feels cage beside
                             And dreams of her life,
                                              Dies at that sight
                             Now, she choose one way,
                                              Obviously family decides
                             So she became the BRIDE,
                                              In RED GOWN to hide
                             The blood of her dreams,
                                              Fell drip drip. . .
                             And people there,
                                              Cheers with drinks.
