I met a girl who loves me so. <br />Never questions my whereabouts while I’m on the go. <br />I can do what I want, never having to worry. <br />This girl is a jewel I’m no fool. <br /> <br />We live together like roommates, <br /> She stays at home, while I stay out late. <br /> We do our own thing and that’s OK. <br /> I don’t truly love her anyway. <br /> <br />We’re about to be married very soon. <br />I married once in the month of June. <br />This is my second time around. <br />This time my feet are on the ground. <br /> <br />I’m not in love though I respect her a lot. <br />She’s safe and easy, Johnny on the spot. <br />Maybe I’ll stay with her until the end. <br />We can always be, very good friends. <br /> <br /> <br />(July 11,2007)<br /><br />Melvina Germain<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/marrying-for-convenience/
