:: union ::

a union is some sort of wedding
but the difference is
it is not in the legal sense
some sort of coming together
celebration of two who really love each other
making promise that they will love each other
in sickness or in health
and never part
or so they try to make it sound

it marks the end of just a simple relationship
and goes a big step into
a world where both blend one another seamlessly into individual life
they are affirmatively together
accepting everything
like a couple

dearie proposed
for us to plan and work ahead
to a day when we can
seam into each other's life
where we make that promise to each other
to love one another deeply, forever
in other words
he "asked for my hands in marriage"..
although it sounds so so wrong..

and I thought about it
for two weeks now..
before i finally said.. yes..

I do..

and now we wait
until the day when we can confirm
the two of us
into
one.

yes..
i'm getting married!

*for all the people who might be interested, we plan it to be maybe in two to four years time..
and no, there won't be a dinner.. mayb a little church ceremony.. or mayb just a luncheon..
till then, life goes on, as usual..*
