Freedom & love are synonymous, therefore, anything that tends to contain love is to be examined as to true purpose. We must consider why it is we want to contain love by forming a structure around it. We must consider why we have created a cage called ‘marriage’ to contain the sweet bird of truth.

To build a life together

Reaching for some imagined utopia

‘Good enough for now!

Keeps me occupied

Don't really want to think about it seriously

A carrot in front of my nose

I don't know what to be

No one told me

So, I'll run & run

& when I feel more sure

Maybe then I'll know how to be

Why is it so hard to face this pain

Why do I sell myself for a useless promise

Why do I need to believe in this promise so much

Who am I?

What am I doing?

Running!

Away from what?

To become what?

I know nothing only that I'm lonely & scared

& I want to escape somewhere’.

Marriage is a lifetime commitment in the eyes of Godand must be taken seriously. It is okay to be uncertain and scared at times, but true love will conquer to show it will all be okay.... Be safe, Karen

Tom, It's fine to feel lonely and scared. That is usually when you find answers and clarity. Keep on running free, until you know that you want to be with that other person in a committed relationship. You don't have to get married to feel married, trust me on this one! Peace, Love, and Light, Amber "V"
