Think twice


Do you want me to be your wife, to be loved and worshipped by you, to be cared for, to be wanted and needed by you, to be desired by you?

Do you want me to be your friend; do you want me to listen to you, to comfort you in despair, to drive away the demons of your mind, the shadows of your nights, the phantoms of your days?

Do you want me to be the mother of your children, do you want me to carry the fruit of your semen for months to come and go into labour to make you father?

If you answer you do, remember: it’s a promise, an oath never to be broken, never to be forgotten.

Think twice.

These days quite many of the young seem to think far more than twice and just go on alone.

That's true, Liisa, and then there are people who won't stop to think anything, they just say " I do" over and over again, because it's so nice to be in love all the time....

Yes, I thought twice.
And wish I did wise ;)

I changed just one word (or a little more)

Do I want to be your wife, to be loved and worshipped by you, to be cared for, to be wanted and needed by you, to be desired by you?

Do I want to be your friend; do I want to listen to you, to comfort you in despair, to drive away the demons of your mind, the shadows of your nights, the phantoms of your days?

Do I want to be the mother of your children, do I want to carry the fruit of your semen for months to come and go into labour to make you father?

If I answer I do, I must remember: it’s a promise, an oath never to be broken, never to be forgotten.

Think twice. Dear me.

And I repeat, think twice.

Not bad, HPY, you gave the poem a good, new perspective to think.
Twice.

It's like being as close as two words that rhyme.

SusuPetal said...

Yes it is.
