Marrying You!

How could I?

Why would I?

Those simple words

I

Do…..

Oh they come with a latch

A ball and chain

One that I’m not sure you’d

Really want to

It’s not that I don’t love you

Of course I do

But the thing is

I’m so confused

You wanted me never,

To getting down on one knee

It’s like you playing with my head

Are you even sure you want

Me?

Because if you do

Know that I’m not perfect

Far from that

There may be times

I want to take it all back

When I’m at my worst

Times when I’ll be broke

Times when I’ll be sick

Times when I need to be cherished

And lord forbid it

I could die

Are you willing to go thru that with me

Till the very end

You see

Because I need you not to pretend

To be

This man who just throw words out

Cuz if I say I do

Just know I’ll be there thru it all with you!
