What It Is Not To Be Married

As a young girl you fall in love, Not once not twice but many times, And then you find a man, A man you think is the right one for you, A man you think can keep you happy , The dream man you have always wished for, The farther you are from him, The more you love him, Little do you realize that there is much more than just this, You want to be closer, Nearer the merrier is what u think, Long hours of talking on phone, Countless hours of romance, Yes, through phone, again, Little do you realize that there is much more than just this, You dream of marriage, Dream of a life with him, The few days you meet during vacation is all you know of him, Little do you realize that there is much more than just this, Then comes the big day, wedding! It's all dreamy and fuzzy through the 3 days of wedding, And finally here you are married and as a wife Little do you realize that there is much more than just this, Cooking, eating together and going out becomes a routine, Little do you realize that there is much more than just this, The first few days is when you get to know each other, Their preferences , their choices, You adjust, he adjusts , after all you think it's all a give and take, Little do you realize that there is much more than just this, Yes, we keep learning in life , from our mistakes and others, In this game of marriage you do see different facets of yourself and him, Anger,love,laughter,selfishness,care,giving,missing and more, But this should all be tied with a feeling called 'mine' The minute you think it's 'yours', you always understand things better , Never think it's him/ her, think that's yours! Yours today, tomorrow and for ever! Marriage, as they say is NOT a bed of roses, Marriage is not a fairy tale, Not a fantasy world, It's not cinema like, It's not always romantic, It's not always about you, Marriage is about understanding, Marriage is about thinking the other person is yours! Feel it to live it!
