Marital Bondage Poem by MAXINE P. SOSO

Marital Bondage

Rating: 3.1


Restriction, conviction of the heart
so it starts
Obsession, the lesson you learn
will burn

in your mind all the tim
Control has got a hold on the mold
you try to break
The mistakes you make

leaves you trembling
You feel alone in your home
though your partner is there
despair when they're near

The verbal, physical and, emotional abuse
what's the use in hanging around?
Stand your ground
refrain, break the chain or remain the same

broken spirit, don't you get it?
The time has come
to take a stand and demand
the respect they wrecked

when they shattered your soul
And left a hole where your heart
used to be
Get back your pride and take in stride

the mistakes you made, you'll get paid
your self-respect, self-worth
And your dignity

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

As this poem describes with far too much punctuation! get rid of the commas in mid sentence, just how marriage should NOT be. Suffocation and hostage situations should be only in the news headlines, not marriage vows. Marriage to the right person is pure ecstacy imo. Loved it myself...Good advice you give here, just a little editing will make it a perfect....NEVER get married poem. Smiling at you, Tai, just testing...
