Ignorance is bliss
See I think a lot of you have it wrong
You think love is suppose to come with torture and putting in years shows your relationship is strong
If your years equals misery
And giving up is frowned upon
Then I bow my head in shame
I won’t tolerate disrespect for a new last name
Relationships like this breed the weak
My man my man my man ,bringing home disease
So in the mean time I’ll just catch up on all my sleep
Because you won’t see me weep
Or drag my feet
Yes, relationships can be hard but not ones where you have to keep up a guard
And build a Fort Knox
And throw rocks
That’s not love or trust
That’s abandonment issues and a generational curse

Yes, relationships are tender-fragile, they have to be handled with the warmth of trust, only then it ripens and lasts a long time. Good read!

Ah, a fitting tribute in the echoes of International Women's Day. This is a well-appointed perspective in a world in which too many women play dead in the arms of deadbeat men. Better to have no bliss in your life than to graduate from the university of ignorance. A fitting write, LadyFitz.

I’m so happy that you got the tribute !
It’s so sad that women are applauded for staying and taking the pain from men and not the women that have the strength to walk away from abuse and stay away.
