Rest in peace marriage
I am sorry that you have died.
Many couples have given you a shot.
Oh! So many have tried.
There is no loyalty and what about sacredness?
Welcome to the world of too many choices.
Welcome to the madness.
Married couples will become extinct.
My what interesting times , we shall be living in choices, choices you say!.
But we have so many choices.
Indeed that's why we are choking,
On our very own voices.
And when you are standing alone,
With gapping wounds.
With wedding vows that have died your lips too soon.
When suitcases are packed with memories, and you each going your separate ways.
Looking over your shoulder, and wondering if you should stay.
Oh! You say!
But you are the lucky few.
Really my friend.
If only you knew.
Luck has nothing to do with it.
Everyday you make a choice.
Your vows were not for the audience.
It was between yourself and your spouse.
And the holy voice?
And you shall remember the day.
The day that marriage has died.
I wonder if all the tears have been shed, and all the oceans have cried
Usually it paint us a silver lining.
Because we want to live in hope.
But alas! We have hung ourselves,
By that very same rope.
It's no longer quant to be a couple.
The roman has ended..
So we stand in our bullshit.
Refusing to be amended.
Let's just move on and hope for the best.
Marriage! Dear marriage,
May you rest in peace.
But ah!!
I am not that cruel, let me try.
Just one more time. Perhaps we can find hope between the lines.
Maybe marriage will make a comeback
Like the old vinyl record.
When technology is removed and we accept that human nature is meant to be flawed.
And play on maesto and march on band.
Love oh! Love i hope that you can
We are suppose to make mistakes.
But must you give up so soon for heaven sake?
I choose to still believe in love.
As below as below so above.
Love you are the shadow that dances in the light.
Love i still bow before you.
And behold your might.
May you rise in peace marriage.
May you reach for the sun.
