Mama

Mama, please, don’t envy me for my choice

He`s my oxygen, the man I love.

There`s no reason to reject him, trust me

Stop saying it is either him or your mummy!

 Mama,

I am old enough to look after myself.

Being a future teacher is a choice you`ve made yourself.

Although no illness, no surgery, I feel an ache.

Stop your nonessential arguing, for God`s sake!

I know that you seek your daughter all the best

But you`ve to know I am not like all the rest.

Whether he`s an alcoholic or a beggar,

In my eyes,he is a leader.

Stop your pride and prejudices

It is not about Jane Austen movies.

It is rather about your lady destiny and choices.
