TWICE
A boss assured a lady,
working under him in the office,
so she gave her self-respect.
The boss sowed a seed, fled away,
the seed was destroyed before its development into a seedling.
The innocent fool lost her self-respect.
The time has passed,
the story has almost faded.
The lady got back her self-respect-
another good man paid it:
her new life will surely make her happy.
