I smiled,
All the while,
It was as false
As a dice.

The came my laughter,
It was bitter,
Uncontrollable  tears fell thereafter.

On the floor I sagged,
Within me a volcano raged,
Me,I, myself  ditched!!
When many I had dumped.

All  the wedding plans had been made,
All the time I was misled,
Not me, my best friend he wanted.

Suicide? Not my kind,
******? Was on my mind.

Then I realised,
The magma in me subsided,
With despair I smirked,
My eyebrows quirked,
Many I had jilted,
They must have been brokenhearted,
You reap what you sow,
In time, may be,I will find the right beau.

In the meantime I will rest,
Hot scented baths,soft music,
delicious food, the best.
Perhaps, a move to the countryside,
With family and old friends by my side.
It was awful but I was strong
