Intelligent and imaginative lady’s Mind and Heart
Outshine the Michelangelo’s Art
But an affliction with her runs till the end from the start
It takes decades before she settle the name of her final sweetheart
She appears well settled in life
Yet her mind does not cease to strife
The problem is more aggravating as world see her as dutiful wife
Why God has created this trap marring her blissful life
Married life is the norm of God created for the society
The Girls start lives as cause of their parent’s anxiety
Though totally unaware, but she also follow laws of this propriety
Girls choose to settle with the 'One' forsaking the variety
Married life is an out and out lie
She behave as happy, but her heart cry
Her celestial body also bids goodbye
Just obtains the status of mother and feel glorified
The love felt at vows take a dip
Blessed are those who start taking nectar sip
But Marital course hardly flips
Notwithstanding pleasure and religious trip
Then her world starts limiting
Her hobbies start crippling
The force in demands of family becomes sickening
The family grows but her own life dwindling
She keeps on sewing family threads
Always appear happy for a newlywed
But she hardly know Gods plan is to spin her head
And seek forgiveness from him for sin of being wed
Is Marriage , a thinking women’s death bed
Same is also true if she is well read
This creature can be a worker, lawyer or teacher
She is considered a facility with double feature
Oh God see, what happened to your legendry creature
Such attractive and distinctive feature of this mystical creature
Can she ever come out of washing, sewing, and cooking
Ultimately there is no benefit in being good looking
The soul of women thus is tamed
Her existence is the only thing to be blamed
Her mind and heart are divided house
It will be futility for her to now find solutions at book house
Kids are now over a feet
The love in marriage takes a backseat
Some gain flesh even if they hardly eat
Family calls it her victory, but she is staring at her defeat
It is at this moment she desires , for what society has coined term cheat
Someone interesting and new to meet
But liabilities are too many and youth to compete
Her heart agrees to a retreat
Then time passes very fast
With her kids, she stand steadfast
She invest her everything in kids as long as it last
So very little remains biologically in her to face a world so vast
The debris of feeling and body so remain
The memories of youth drive her insane
House to homemaking process is stalled
The self-love is again reinstalled
She love her family , kid and Home
But still something separate her from family , even if all are together at Rome
The ring on the finger is now only ornamental
Only her domestic facade remains everything else she dismantle
She is again a wild horse on the run
Searching for a new one
The search is easy to complete
Love is difficult for girls, but for a woman so easy to repeat
She is so upbeat
But society and family are to be managed with deceit
But Lover is a novice and wants openly to show his heartbeat
She goes back to her shell and a part of her dies with million heartbeat
Never blame yourself for such venture
It's the force of nature, which sends you on this adventure
Family and Love you deserve both.
So discharge family duty and also freely take love oath
Fidelity is by circumstances and not to get glory.
You are free to write your own story
Fidelity should not be another name for slavery
Life is short , make yourself merry
