The World of the MarriedA Poem by xianahAn ekphrastic poemThe
world of the married... It
is a world filled with love, passion
and happiness, songs
of affection and
unending promises But
isn't it the most vulnerable to
the inevitable pain, suffering,
conflicts, temptation
... and
broken promises? The
world of the married is
a world you enter into not
only because you love someone, otherwise
it can be a world that
you cannot wait to escape from The
world of the married is
not for the couple alone they
share it with people around them most
especially their children Be
wary, for
it can be penetrated, invaded, wrecked by
the unwelcomed It
needs to be protected but
to what extent? For
how long should one stay? For
how long should one hold on? For
how long would one realize what it's worth? The
world of the married A
beautiful world indeed but
beauty comes with complexity and
a mad reality Is
it a world for
you and me? © 2020 xianah |
