TILL DEATH DO US PART

A poem about conflicts surrounding the christian's marriage vows

Happily together till death do us part
This is a promise made at the start
Oh wonderful and lovely is the chant
This is our desire tis what we crave tis what we want

Yes we spoke as though we seriously contemplated
Or were we blindly following love as society dictated
were we like a shaft that the wind driveth away
Or floating down a river of divine wine without delay

Being equally yolked satisfied an important criteria
Yet that alone could not withstand the grueling test of time
Inertia of mind from deep interior
Sparks new plans and dreams once rife with decline

Thoughts of what aught to have been is oft rewind
In the perfect and dynamic evolving mind.
