marriage

blue skies, and white lies;
shattered hearts; and goodbyes.
black dress, and broken vows.
cheated love, and huge wows.
tear streaked faces, open cases.
depression,frustration, tied up laces.
til death do us part; or til you harden your heart.
sinking ring, the ocean floor.
some shiny thing. not worth looking for.
hurtful words and tourniquette.
have you forgotton me yet?
marriage what a funny thing.
can you feel that sting?
control, and mental abuse
broken down, and a tied up noose.
easy to get in, hard to get out.
that's what marriage is about.
