I Made it on My Own

I’ve been with a multitude of men in my life, In retrospect they’ve brought me nothing but strife. I tried more than once to make that dance last, But in the end they were part of my past. I didn’t learn much from any of them. I already knew more than most of those men A football player, an Army Vet, a finance banker I’ll never forget, Some had money, some had fame, Most simply wanted to play loves game. I loved a couple of them and they loved me back, But mostly just wanted to hop in the sack. They walk a good walk, And they talk a good talk. There were no mansions in my life, I never found one as funny as Matt Rife. They’ve given me children then ran away I see old ugly women with big diamond rings, Where did I go wrong? I don’t have all that bling. They'll put a knife in your heart and tracks on your soul, Keep your mind and eyes open and take no black coal. They will destroy you, if you close your eyes, Never allow them to cause your demise. Needless to say, I have made my own way, Not without troubles, but I’m happy anyway. I love the song, “Is That All There Is,” But I’ll keep dancing, even if it is. As you can see, I make silly rhymes, I’m happy writing novels and stories of life’s times. I’m on TikTok, YouTube, and have lots of money. I dare anymore strange men to call me honey! So, as you can see by what I have written, I’ve caused myself trouble when becoming smitten. And if I’m meant to be alone, Please write this on my Tombstone. “Here lay a woman who made it on her own." I made it on my own......
