335.Windfall gain

The secret was her's
Buried permanently;
She had conceived 
And received
A priceless gift
To call her own
Without ever measuring 
The windfall gain.

Destiny had a different plan
Blood soaked petticoat 
Mocked her loss
Pain numbed her 
Yet lips remained sealed
It never revealed 
The sordid state 
It went through.

She jealously
Guarded her privacy
Without expecting
Any understanding,
Pity and sympathy.
In the tower of loneliness
She relived every moment
It was her Windfall gain.
