She had something else
and remained tense
not for our happy union
but for her new find and companion

why did she prefer?
and offer
her life for the exchange of treasure
i remained totally unsure

she had fancy ideas
so made repeated pleas
to go away from me
like bird totally free to fly

where her promises had gone?
what wrong had I done?
was she not looked after well?
she had nothing more to tell

today she has been turned down
her fate has remained unknown
I heard her saying "I mistreated "
it made me totally upset

how come one woman can accuse?
when she herself had refused
to stay with willingness
some dark lines appear on my face
