As I take this Oath...
By Chebet Caroline
As I step to worlds unknown,
Scribble this seal of
eternity,
Walked down this isle,
As I utter this words
For me to seal this vow,
I feel your cold Momma,
I feel your loneliness,
As I slip this ring in his
hand and
As I turn my back at you,
To give a hug to someone
else,
I feel the betrayal,
That the hugs I have given
you while I was with you was not enough
I feel the cold biting,
Yours was a warm hug of a
Momma
While this is a seal of
eternal vows of love
As I move down this aisle,
With best wishes sweeping
through my feet,
I can feel your heart going
numb,
I can feel the mixed reaction
in you,
Both sad and happy,
As you see me take this vow,
To live and love this man
As I scribble this seal of
eternal engagement,
I feel your voice getting
lost
While you cannot utter a word
I can feel your heart throb
with uncertainty
If,
This man will take care of
your little girl.
As this ring is slipped to my
finger,
I can feel your tears
I can feel the million thuds
of heartthrobs
I can feel your anger
That someone is stealing your
jewel
I can feel your envy,
Of someone robbing you of
your treasure.
