She Bet My Heart

inside her love 
i saw joy for life 
for her i saw bright destiny 
i thought everything will make a change
i thought she will be my  family i don't have
dady and mom'' parents and my guide
in that way i believed that 
no wealth greater that 
her love she gave to me 

but ...... i never knew........

that girl i am telling you 
who took away my Saul
because i believed she was the only one 
who sent from angels kingdom
finally she left me ....

in her words i keep remember 
she said, nothing i have 
even my my Faith didn't exist
see, she continue says.....
men with empty wallet  
how could he raise 
our two children as they deserve

i found another man the rich one
so,, keep praying  your God 
will give you another women
poor like you;;;

my children keeps crying 
ask me  where is our mother
in that moment  my heart beat
and i wonder how she bet my heart 
for other men ...........
may one day she lose... 
sand  come back.........
i will call her mine wife 
mother of our children 

she bet my heart while  i were beat my wallet up,;'

now i am  famous , come back home
 i have wealth you gone for searching for.... 

but promise never bet my heart again ........;'

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed New Year.

This is heartbreaking to read. A man’s true wealth can never be measured by his wallet. Otherwise rich men would not have such a difficult time to enter the Kingdom.
