Till Death Do You Part? .... [marriage; Caution; Love Lost; Short] Poem by Bri Edwards
Till Death Do You Part? .... [marriage; Caution; Love Lost; Short]
"…… till death do you part? "How often has that been said?
And how many have said "I do", but NOW …. wish THEY were dead;
"they" OR their spouse ……., since their faithful bond has expired?
But a spouse isn't a boss who can just say "You're fired! " …..
and step off by oneself and leave the other behind,
especially if the "other" is ……………. e.g. ill, senile, or blind.
Well, I'm sure it's done, but many would disapprove,
and the one "stepping off" might feel guilty, a feeling hard to remove.
It's just another good reason to ask, be you genius or fool,
"What are the hazards of entering into the marriage-pool? "
(April7,2015)
oh, wait! i forgot we were talking about wives/husbands.that (above)is what i say and do for a secretary/mistress.

========================================
now, February 2nd...2018, i'm pleased to bring you a Filipino language translation by PH member Jez Brul:
"Hanggang Papaghiwalayin Ng Kamatayan? "
"...hanggang papaghiwalayin ng kamatayan? "
Gaano kadalas na ito'y nasasabi?
At ilan ang nagsasabing " Opo ",
subalit ngayon...sana'y naglaho na sila
"sila" o yaong asawa nila..., mula nang matapos ang kanilang tipanan?
Subalit and asawa'y hindi isang amo na magsasabing, " Tanggal ka na"...
sabay talikod at maiiwan ang isa.
lalo na kapag ang "isa" ay... halimbawang maysakit, ulyanin o bulag na.
Sabagay, sa tingin ko tapos na, pero marami ang kokontra
At ang isang "nang-iwan at tumalikod" ay ma kokonsensya, damdaming kayhirap alisin.
Ito'y isang magandang rason para itanong, ikaw man ay pantas o mangmang,
"Anu-ano ang mga panganib ng pagpasok sa buhay may-asawa? "
