Matrimony
ought to be something like union
Dwell
in perfect love with your partner
Enjoying
the bliss that comes with it
Just
with the one you say the word I do to
As we
chase the dream of living a fulfilled life
Dwelling
in love harmony leading to an happy ending
But so
many things abound around us today
A lot
has been this last few decades
From
horizon to the dusk of each day
What
will use to know as “love” never the same way
Swept
off under the carpet lost it all
To the
dreams and aspiration of that wife
Who
dwells with her man till the end of time
Staying
for real inspite of the storms arising
Not a
knife for a wife
If you
are going on a journey of finding a wife
Be
careful and go with your inner mind awake
So
full of sight like the sight of an eagle
Never
be blinded by love but have a sight of love
Many
has been beaten by the rain of fake love
Not a knife
for a wife
Not
the one who will make life miserable for you
Not
the one who cannot stand up for you in face off with her family and friends
Not
the one whose love tank towards you has been empty
Not
the one who cannot hold it down when the storms comes blowing
Not a
knife for a wife
Not the
one who chickened out when situation becomes unfair
Not
the one who says a lot of good things about you and turn back to stab you
Not
the one who lost the love in search of next available option
Not an
harlot for a wife but Hannah for a wife
Not a
knife for a wife
But a virtuous
woman
Who keeps
her man
And
keeps him on his toe to live right
In
becoming the man he is to her, her home and her children
Not A
Knife for A Wife…which can of wife are you?
