"A man settles where there is peace"
Her: Please,
Please don't leave me,
I beg of you,
I promise to be a better woman,
Give you peace,
Treat you like a king,
Always appreciate and be
grateful for the the little things you
Offer me,
You are right ,you tried to change me
to be better person but it ain't my fault.
But...,
Him: But what!!,
I tried hard to make you happy,
Sacrifice just for you to be
comfortable in this life,
I tried to understand you,
Accepted you with your flaws,
(Stares at the lady,motionless,eyes
transfixed on her),
What did I do wrong,
Is it because I love you too much?,
Or is it because ...never mind,
I'll just leave,
Like a feather in the wind,
I'll just drift away,
For a man settles where there is peace,
"Better to leave in a corner of leaking
house than to be with a quarrelsome
woman",
Good bye my love,
(The man picks up him assets while the lady emotionally sobs,an indication of her regrets, hoping for her man to give her another 6th chance just to make everything right,without hesitation the man takes a step after another a sign of "good bye my lover, good by my friend, you have been the one, been the one for me"),
