What Gain In Her Demise.( The unknown)

Esiobu Chisikamdi Vivian 2002 (Anambra state)



What Gain In Her Demise


I want to live just like every
other creatures
but life isn't worth living
as I gain nothing from my want.

She wants nothing but happiness
peace and joy
how will she have all this
when you won't let her be.

Finally she's gone
nothing could be compared to
what you've done her
what have you gained.

She's no more
you have no one to paint
when drunk
to box with when angry
to lash out when hungry.

You wished she lives
she always wished she leaves
you miss her
but she missed life

It's all your fault
you know she hadn't known
that life with you would be
a bed of thorn .
a hell on earth
and doesn't worth living.

You know she doesn't know
that you only  smile when
she's with the money
she's made the meal
without your earn
and at mid nights.

You know she doesn't know
that life with you
would have led her to the unknown.

    In our society the life of the women aren't valued which is very awful.
    We need to set a rule to protect the life of the women.
