Still At The Table (Hurts 2B Human)

A Poem by John Alexander McFadyen
"

Inspired by an interview given by Pink: https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/pink-carey-hart-marriage-is-awful-wonderful-comfort-and-rage/

"

Marriage is awful,

wonderful,

comfort and rage.

It is boring,

it's terrifying

it sets you on edge;

it sets you up,

it lets you down

and swings you all around.

It kisses your lips sweetly,

then knocks you to the ground.

You work at it,

it works on you

it works out or it doesn't,

either way

there is no cure

for true, true love

has no choice

and surely will endure.

It could knock you down and getting up takes a whole village to hold your hands but when you do get up, then you have been made.

Not easy but sometimes necessary.
marriage is definitely a paradox in so many ways...
and both sides tug at each other...literally and figuratively...
