Marriage, a Path To Prosperity Or a Door To Adversity

Some see serenity in parity Some seem open to disparity An institution as old as the hills Marriage is marked with unclarity Some people unable to think straight Champ at the bit, they just can’t wait To make the mistake that seals their fate Only to wake up when it’s too late Worse-befallen are the ones who see Right through their mate’s real he or she And nevertheless, opt to go ahead Further on folly upping the ante “When we got married, things went worse”, Say most people after they divorce Success so scarce some call marriage A miscarriage and a failed discourse The ups and downs of married life The rifts and shifts being so rife Monologue the vogue, madness galore Better no longer remain man and wife Better unmarried and live on single Than with the wrong type marry and mingle If you are happy with unwedded life Forget marriage. Resist the tingle! Should you get married and then divorce Beware not to sink yourself in remorse It won’t be easy, but do cheer up For a better life, you must change the course
