Life : A Beautiful Journey

What happens when you complain about your boring life?

It surprises you with an arranged marriage filled with arranged emotions.

~~~~~~~

My heart beats fast, my soul feels torn,
As parents decide, my life is sworn.
A stranger's face, a unknown name,
My future husband, my life's flame.

Fear creeps in, like a thief in night,
Will he love me? Will our love take flight?
Doubts assail, like a raging sea,
Can I trust him? Will he set me free?

Excitement stirs, like a budding rose,
A new life unfolds, with unknown woes.
Hope eternal, like a guiding light,
Perhaps our love will ignite, in the night.
Nervous smiles, awkward initial meets,
Two strangers bonding, heartbeats that beat.
Tentative steps, into unknown lands,
Together we'll walk, hand in hand.

Love blossoms slow, like a desert bloom,
Trust grows strong, like a fortress room.
Gratitude swells, like a thankful heart,
For this stranger, now a loving part.

Sadness lingers, like a fading scar,
For the life I left, the memories afar.
Longing whispers, like a summer breeze,
For the freedom, the choices I'd seize.

Resilience born, like a phoenix rise,
I adapt, I grow, with opened eyes.
Acceptance dawns, like a morning sun,
Our love, our life, has just begun.
