Is marriage inevitable?

Meena-

I loved her.

She was more than an angel.

I married her.

She was less than a devil.

Beena-

She was the mother of pearl.

Someone married.

She is still to me a pearl

or more than a mother of pearl.

Marriage-

Is it a death knell to love?

Love-

Is it alive like a mirage?
