a thought for Du Doll

how does one know to marry
when one has feelings true
not with ones head
but within ones heart
can you see this person
old and gray
dying slow within a day
held within your arms
and know with deaths last rattle
your love will carry on
that children born will grow
and all will move away
yet this is the one you will be with
till both of you are gray
yes there will be fights aplenty
over many a tiny thing
feelings hurt
dreams crashed
in the years ahead its true
but yet when both are tired
with sleep comin on
whispered words of love
snuggled arm in arm
as the eyes slow close
you will know if true
that this is the one to live for
in the many years comin for you
