Wife Material

"
Women from that family never get married
Relationships are a game to them
Though they get played more 
They have a thing for bad boys, "bad boys bad boys" know what to do 

Women from that family do get married
They are fighters and don't tolerate nonsense 
They are head-ers, always in charge, their way or not
Maybe these qualities make their marriages 
Fade and crash along the way

Their mother has been married with many "happy anniversaries"
But she is always on the move, can't stay still
Always away, businesses, deals etc
Never around, maids at home, only a phone call away
The many times she has sworn to leave her husband 
The many issues they have, dramatics, both carrying their own guilt 
The many times she complains about him
The continuous dissatisfaction, disgust, disaster. ..
                                                                                              "

Some people are addicted to wedding cake, others to the drama and attention of the day. We can all tend to fit someone we like into what we are looking for and ignore the bits that are not right but those little buggers come back to haunt you. you know my history and so you know its not just empty smug comment. Kind regards, Ian

Lol your comment made me laugh. And yes i agree with all you've said. You made think of another poem. Here's the title "ive never had a wedding cake". With this one i can either make the poem sad or humorous. Thank u Ian.
