Behind the Marriage Veil

*BEHIND THE MARRIAGE VEIL* With deep breathe ponder I on; marriage and the veil An institution “trademarked” for ages And placed miraculous premium on its product; “Two will become one” Through the corridor of the institution I walk Wondering, what behind the veil lies Could it be ………. Some things wait for the appointed time? Anxiety fights for the knowledge that marriage veil holds That draws and drowns the multitude and indescribable creatures alike; Was it a unified thinking capacity? An ocean of thoughts lighten up a dark room What a bright day!!! For behind the marriage veil lies a divine glare of your persona The character behind the veil speaks volumes of a nation to be birthed. The raising of the veil stirs a mixed feeling; For it is, for better, for worse. The radiant light of Holiness Caused a fall in the veil Could it be love at first sight with its uncertainty? The uplifting of the veil to discover Its true identity is what we know as “Second Chance” In the midst of what to be unravelled behind the veil Is what we call a woman. Word of Mouth Assesses Nature. *WOMAN* Written by: Matthew Deladem Ahafianyo
