she should've listened

before he passed away, he told her daughter to never get married. out of all the sons and daughters he had, he only warned this particular child. maybe he knew something that she didn't know. maybe he knew that she'd suffer for the rest of her life if she got married. whatever he knew, he was right.

if only she had listened to her father. life would've been so much better for her and her own daughter. if only she had listened to her daughter who, at the age of 8, pleaded with her mom to get a divorce. but she didn't listen. and now she's stuck in this miserable life of hers... with a child who has yet to grasp what it means to have an honorable, loving, respectable father.

this same mom told her daughter to never get married and to live freely and peacefully... unlike her mom, this child will listen.
