Marriage and Life
MARRIAGE AND LIFE
People marry in search of a new life
expectations are high, hearts soaring,
unlocking closed hearts ready for the new adventure
aching to give and partake in the new experience
Talk to me of people in love
yell at me your heart
whisper in my ear
fill my cup of desire
Rub me the right way
Rub me the wrong way
But rub me with cinnamon
The spice of Life
Throw me on the bed
Throw me on the floor
Throw me pillows in the moonlight
Let’s live! We have a lifetime to explore love
Marriage moments move slowly, often happily
but the fun moments are quickly dispelled
the mist of excitement is soon dispersed by an unseen wind
experience expands the mind’s acceptance of responsibilities
Or not,
time moves rapidly exploding myths of marriage
that slowly morph into Life’s chores
and necessities
Longevity brings insensitivity and questions to a floundering union
creating a demanding environment and suspicion for both
deeply felt love is spoken sparingly
though not forgotten
But thoughts of the good times evaporate into questions
did I ever love this person, do I love them now?
Sustained Love happens to the lucky ones
and in time in some marriages may build love and survive
for the unlucky what was once deeply felt affection
time, responsibility and daily toil have taken away
All the good feelings of love are cast aside
and what remains are only raw gnawing scars
that only time can overcome
but in new pastures
But if love is still bountiful and respect is still there
be grateful and recall the first time you made Love
remember the way it used be, recall those moments of ecstasy
and unbridled love making, feel the years peel off...
send the kids out to play, lock the door, pull the shades down
IT'S TIME TO GET NAKED AND CELEBRATE YOUR LOVE!!!
