MARITAL DECEIT


He vowed to always love her when she became his bride Unfortunately those words were empty promises made Nights after nights she cried Having the knowledge that's she been played Hurts and pains she hid inside Worse than cuts from blade The love is gone Constant forceful penetration is now a routine She cries from dusk till dawn She has become a pleasurable machine Couldn't believe she got married to a beast Her body has become a palatable sexual feast The beautiful love story transcends into a curse Her man sows in her, unwanted seeds Too many babies she has to nurse Now she takes abortion pills like a farmer uprooting weeds Too many fruits produced All, products of sexual abuse Merem Samuel
