Oneness
Oneness
It's not that they were perfect in all respects
They had many differences in reading,
Food preferences, levels of intelligence.
In priorities in life, beliefs, and sentiments
So what held them together till death?
Questions often asked to assess
If they were bound by any obligations
If it was merely for sake of satiation
When two bodies are drawn like magnets
Seeking pleasures of the flesh
No...it wasn't love at first sight
No...it was not the glow of dowry light
No...it was not under any duress
It was the willingness to accept each other
With all perfections and imperfections
Result added to the bonding of two humans
God had ordained would one day meet,
Marry, raise children, live a life free of debts
Eventually, be rewarded for their sacrifices
For being frugal in life's early stages
And the world was under the impression
How would their marriage work come from different religions?
Who would perform their last rites, in the absence of their children
Who had fled? They solved the problem
Advising the hospital their bodies would donate
For medical research for students.
And they would see only the human anatomy,
Oblivious of their caste, creed, or religion.
