EXPECTATION

Every race she ran, every test she took

She was by far the best, in everyone’s book

Her teachers loved her, her friends did too

She was as sweet as she was clever, that much is true

A lissom lass, she grew up to be

Said yes to the guy who went down on bended knee

As always, she gave her best to her married life

But he didn’t agree, and rejected her as his wife

The ways of humankind are unfortunately set

And the best is the best, only when EXPECTATION is met!
