Burden

I will pose a question to my world
And see if there be anyone
Man or woman, who can console my soul with an answer most apt and finite.

Why does the devil fight against beautiful matrimony, with every ounce of strength?
Beyond my comprehension is the reality of seeing couples smiling at morning, quarreling at noon and refusing the other's arm at dusk.

What invisible spirit owns this duty
To set betrothed ones at enmity with each other?
My heart can no longer carry this weight alone
Tell me I pray, what hates to see love brewed in its purest form?

What is happening to the institution of marriage
I need answers???
