Her Insecurity

 

She put on weight, her confidence went down,

Her husband left her, for he thought she's fat,

She would sit down and never leave the couch,

Her stomach would fill up with lots of food,

She had to think about cutting her weight,

Her figure was in quite a sorry state.

 

It was time to work upon her sad state,

Week in week out, she would more food gulp down,

It was time to get up and lose some weight,

To be motivated against the fat,

Prove to her ex- that she was not the couch.

She needed now to give up on the food.

 

She went to the market and sold the couch,

She began yoga, a more relaxed state,

She started the gym, to burn down the food,

And all the sugars that she would wolf down.

The calories would go, and all the fat,

Over the weeks, she lost more and more weight.

 

She'll find a new man with all that lost weight,

She'll get him out of his living room couch,

Start dancing lessons, she's no longer fat,

Prove to her husband she's a happy state,

If she sees him now, he won't live it down,

For he left her because of all the food.

 

How dare he leave her because of all the food?

The next time she saw him, he'd put on weight,

Those very reasons that he let her down.

Now, she realised, it was him on the couch,

His turn now to be in a sorry state

And to get up and burn down all the fat.

 

She thought, it was his fault she'd gotten fat,

Only when he'd gone did she quit the food,

Once he'd left, she was in a perky state

And happier having lost all the weight.

Having given up the depressing couch

And no longer wolfing all the food down.

 

She was once so fat and really felt down,

She stopped sitting round with food on the couch,

She's now in a happy state with her weight.
