Haiku for a friend

For a friend who left an unhappy marriage Break free ; like how an island broke away from peninsular Malaysia Living a much more better life now There is brainwashing by cultural n religious norms on the concept of marital status as the dream of every unattached girl.I feel it starts from childhood education of bridal gowns,diamond rings and floral bouquets that romanticise love relationships.Girls buy into the ideal by reading romance fictions that tell lies to you.Blame it on romance thrashy novels like Harlequin n Mills n Boons. Now rewrite the ending with and they divorced and lived happily ever after instead of they got married and lived happily ever after.Get real.
