You Deserve Better Than That...

this is your life the clock is ticking, 
take those shackles off, 
meet yourself within, 

many wives tossed aside, 
after twenty or thirty years...
it happens...and it happens 
everywhere... 

rebuild yourself, 
yes if needed be, without a him, 
without a mad man...his demons
within...

Rescue your broken spirit, 
break out of this emotional prison, 

don't let him kick you when your down, 
he's a master of betrayal...
he saw you coming, had you nailed, 
a predator you can believe it for sure...
he came a knocking... 

all he wants is to get off, 
thats' all they ever want, 
you know that, and thats what you got...
now self cure 

nothing but a good woman, 
nothing but a good wife... 

he has insulted you...burned your psyche... 

the male order bride...

...the Once upon a time... 

the brutal truth...grab your spine 
get some back bone step up to the line... 

men and women are very different, 
woman wants a man a husband, 
a father for her children... 

man wants a woman, a sex slave...
not a wife...
a wife gives the ***** strife... 

for the *****, reality is too much, 
responsibility exposes the truth, 
a wifes' remorse...

...his reason for leaving...an excuse... 

one day he'll trade you for younger p#@y,
your cavity too loOse too flabby 
not enough kitty... 

he's the classic selfish bastard-
he's moved on with his new hard on... 

meet you on the side of logic... 
he'll recover his cock in the lost and found 
or someones' closet? 

for too many women, you maybe married, 
but a husband you do not hold, 

in fact for most you have nothing more 
than a talking *****... 

for many for what it's worth 
I do not relish your position, 
I won't stand here and say I told you so, 
but will give you fair warning: 

be yourself,...it's not your fault...
your gender is held to ransom...
social conditioning it's a crock, 
a woman is incomplete without a man...
without his hard on between your legs... 

hey it's your life...look around you...
where do you want to be, wake up 
don't fall for this fantasy... 

there are alternatives galore, 
many women don't have the need 
for a mad man anymore, 

...there are good men out there
take your time to settle down...

women have observed, their grandmothers, 
mothers' relatives and friends, 
too many womans lives 
ruined by the misery of mad men...
