Boys Don\'t Marry

Amara is tired

Amara is wounded

Amara is betrayed

She thought to have found him

The one to be merged with her

 

The first night with him

Gently touch and soft kiss

Her heart leapt like a wild gazelle

When his testicle bells hit her thighs

Amara squealed

 

She has missed her period

Her breasts are tender and swollen

Amara is vomiting in the morning

Abdominal pains bites her

She is sick with mood swings

 

Nine months are over

The fetus\'s eyes and pupils are more developed

It\'s time to push

Amara is alone

Amara is bleeding

 

She\'s carried off by paramedics

The blade cuts through her

She wriths and groans in pain

Her angel safely arrives raising alarm

Amara\'s child

 

His phone is off

His address is invalid

He was last seen with Jane

Rumours have reached Amara

He is planning to marry Jessica

 

Amara is weak

Amara pays all the bills

Amara\'s child is sick

Amara carries her child to hospital

In a hospital she stands behind a young man

 

He\'s speaking to a doctor

To give him more rubbers

There is a night dance to attend

More gardens to be ploughed by him

He\'s done , his eyes meets Amara

 

Amara is shocked and terrified

She drops on the cemented floor with her child

Jerry\'s head meets the floor

It bursts open splashing blood 

Jerry passes on

 

Darkness and silence!

He took to his heels

Across the highways cars tooted

Undercarriage there he went in peace

His body lies next to Jerry.
