Though she was not illiterate,
And had a good sense of humor and wit surely,
But immediately after marriage, she began to change rapidly.
Tortured by her alcoholic partner almost every night,
She had no capability to fight.
The secret began to slowly poison her body
Though her parents who came to see her sometimes we're unable to study.
The essential truth she was omitting thinking of parent's reputation
She got an insomniac as the thing grasped her with preoccupation.
She surrendered at last to the land of death
Having digested the secret by herself the untold pain she left last breath.
Secrets and omissions sometimes play a fatal role
If not taken seriously or if not unraveled in time,
Besides the body, they devour our sacred soul.
