"Because I love you"


She's been through it before

Arranged, colorism, and a false love.

All in complete disguise,

immoral wolves in sheep clothing,

bearing five beautiful gifts.

It wasn't until the possible verge of fifty,

the sacred lotus flower bloomed.

A true love has come,

breaking the shackles of her past,

lifting her to the heavens.

He supports her even with a frown

in which matters are discussed,

resulting in a healing,no bruising involved.

All because her loves

She has now found an anchor,

keeping her vessel at bay.

And that's why she truthfully says,

"Because I love you".
