My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife,
Marrying you messed up my life.

I see your face when I am dreaming,
That’s why I always wake up screaming.

Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
This describes everything you are not.

I love your smile, your face and your eyes,
Damn, I’m good at telling lies!

My feelings for you, no words can tell,
Except for maybe ‘Go to hell.’

What inspired this amazing rhyme?
A bottle of Feni, little Salt n Lime !
