Father Of Venus



Her Father, my Mother  
Who is to be blamed  in blame games
For expectation, setting standards  
To be kept, to be matched  


I blame her father, she blames my mother  
It is not Mars or Venus that holds blame tags 
To be renamed,  pointing fingures in blame game named  


Her father is Venus and my mother is Mars   
She moulded Mars, my mother did  
 For a man to be who I am 


I blame her father   
Fathering her love and expectation 
Mr Venus setting standards bars soo high 


I blame her father she blames my mother  
Now we are playing catch up, learning fast  
From rule books, discovery of unwritten love manual

That women are from fatherly Venus 
And men are from motherly Mars 
I bet you didn't think of it this way
