Landmine

She says she loves him

Makes the best of her task

Then she goes away

And tears apart her mask

 

She limps in agony

When she is with him

Then she goes away

And enlightens the dim

 

She finds another soul

Maybe this is the one

While her man at home

Is having quite some fun

 

They affix their roots

And get tangled in pleasure

She comes to find out

He is her true treasure

 

She comes home late

Her man is upset

She then does something

She will never regret

 

Slaps him across the face

Confronts what he swore

A smile on her face 

And walks out the door
