Marriage Is a Servants Life

A servant I will not become, no not me

Marriage Is a Servants Life

Marriage is a servants life

At least that is what some say

Giving parts of who you are

Day after ordinary day

Serving love and serving patience

Serving dreams that change with time

Learning how to share the burden

Without keeping count or lines

Sometimes one gives more than needed

Sometimes one feels overlooked

Sometimes pages lose their meaning

From the way the story looked

Though service without respect

Turns heavy after years

Love should never mean surrender

Or surviving only tears

Marriage should not feel like duty

Or carrying both alone

It should feel like being noticed

Like somewhere safe called home

Marriage is a servants life

Only if one serves alone

Two people walking together

Makes the weight feel less unknown
