The Journey of Marriage

The Journey Of Marriage Grand party, grand clothes, grand decor and grand style! Well-wishers and greetings cheering the dulled hearts Silver jubilee's are celebrated by partners with affected smiles Wars behind doors and eyes literally gnawed out by painted talons The tongue's wrath suffices enough to dig the other's deepest grave Hugging and kissing, hot breaths murmuring love, Recanting nostalgic moments of forgotten years Questionably doubtful are their publicly remembered memories Hypocritical man enjoys the pleasures of his self spun yarns The journey of marriage is of the queerest sort For the first 25 years the credit goes to the woman She is new in a family of cobwebbed informal strangers With unexpected situations and strangeness all around Dowry and many more expectations with her innocent entry Barbs suffocating her and barbed wires demarcating her existence A new family is fenced around greatly testing her tolerance The frail kneel down and the frailer are knocked out in a wolf pack The strongest of them bitterly battle through their horrendous lifetime In the next 25 years milestone the man is crushed by his woman's strength No more cowing, she now woof's and purrs, her journey has just begun The new look, the new woman, the new beginning, A bold woman takes birth, her fur flies, no more messing with her New music they listen to while forced to to see their real satanic selves- Tarnished images barren without their much wanted spoils His wife now a stranger, the truth he faces as she demands justice Balances are straight, her voice commands respect as her ship sails off The sacrifices of an egalitarian woman demand numerous accolades November 12, 2015 Contest: The Journey Begins Sponsor:Matt Caliri
