She Knows About Life

To the man she did love she had become his wife And it was the happiest day of her life By her family and wedding guests congratulatory speeches were made Happy memories one never does wish for to fade Her first few years of marriage were times of love and joy She gave birth to her only child a healthy baby boy But that her husband had become unfaithful to her she came to realize And lack of trust to loss of love does give rise He left her for another to raise their child on her own The man that she married she had not really known He never supported her financially She is one who knows of hard times and poverty The worst day of her life was the day she lost her son He died in a car accident when he was twenty one Some six years ago he would be now in his physical prime Of years of life he did not have that much time In her early fifties with some gray in her shoulder length hair of brown She remains one of the most beautiful women of the town A nice single down to earth woman though in ways slightly shy And one who will not give marriage another try.
