In a Matrimony

To you
Union is an unwanted monster
Your love is at war
Strife over a small matter
This is your manner
Matrimony should be harmony
Cloud of malice is not like eye-candy
Should be erased as a useless memory
To give a room to a definite harmony

In love
Half plus half make one only
As one plus one are solely
For the collation of two contrary persons
Become an only person
For halves to rivet to become a one
Understanding, admitting they're one
And to forgiving 
And forgetting
With neither a prattle nor prompt
For all living are bound in fault
And it's not a syndrome of disease, but inherent

For love is a prime number
For one increase is prime and flower
Sincerity makes a prime matrimony
As eyes are prime to the body.
Small particle may erase anxiety and affliction
Give thanks for small things for they can bring a grin.

Afolabi. NOw this one is looking really good to me!!! I especially like "as eyes are prime to the body" to relate back to love being a prime number/ prime matrimony. Wonderful job, my friend.
