Marriage sacred and sanctified,
Why divorce?
Who divorced who?
Both agreed till death,
Marriage is pain and gain.
Though many a woman divorced,
Accused of infidelity,
But many a man cheats,
They call it games,
Her heart wounded and pierced,
But she forgives and bears the
sweet pains.
All tails are tails,
All holes are holes,
Why cheat?
Though styles differs,
Why not teach her,
The two are one.
In the stone age,
Women honoured and treasured,
But today stressed in pleasure,
Cursed and caused to weep,
Tears mock her love for him,
He smiles at her tears.
She treasures and pleasures him,
In return he desires to acquire her
friend’s hips,
Her heart heaps worries and sorrows,
Her knees humble in prayers.
Traditionally and religiously
He acquires her love,
Why bull and batter her?
Her love clings to him in matrimony
But he shares.
Rumours roared in the air,
He heard, but never caught,
He files a divorce,
She pleads his deaf ears
Ignorantly he ignores her.
Divorce isn’t the option,
But to mend the broken fence,
Men cheat,
Women cheat,
Temptation abounds,
Forgiveness abounds.
Some call it holy divorce,
But divorce is divorce,
The divorced and divorcee
share in its stings,
Their children the traumatic bearers.
Marriage isn’t relationship,
Relationship isn’t marriage,
Marriage is ordained,
\'Sekeuku\' isn’t scriptural,
Marriage is for better for worse.
