The Warning
Smile bright as you take her place at the altar
With your own eyes you watched how bad she felt & how he did treat her
His eyes stayed up on yours as she watched his
She begged for him to listen and not hurt her like this
The first time you saw her she was young, vibrant, brand new
She now looks frail, broken carrying all the bags he will now force on you
As you walk away as one the damage will have already been done
He will stray from you as he begins his search for the next one
As you become one you must take possession
It was you who did not learn from her lesson
She fears for your sake
As she knows you will make this mistake
