The Union

We are gathered here together
To witness the Union...

The Union,
Doesn't say the "I control you and you control me."

The Union
The friendship, the helper

The Union
Knowing that you forever have somebody on your side

The Union
Basic unit of each culture
When the family breakdown occurs
Throughout a country
So does that country breakdown

It's common practice
For people to live together
Without a documented Union

I can't
If you can't see yourself ever in a marriage
Then you must put me out of your mind and heart
