Gert's blog...broken hearted

I'm broken hearted. I'm a laughing stock too. Teddy lied to me, told me everything I wanted to hear. That fella was the love of me life. I was willing to elope with him and he turns around and falls for me mother's tricks. Oh that woman! 'Tis she should be on the boat to England, not me. And now I've lost me only chance at happiness, me only chance of love, me only chance of staying at home. When I get to me brother's flat in Camden I'll be safe from all me mother's control. And I'll start to forget about Teddy. At least nobody knows me in London. I won't feel ashamed like I would back home in Kerry. A place I doubt I'll see again!
