my mom is about to end her third marriage
my dad is about to embark on his ninth
i wonder if that's the reason i shy away
so here the question comes
do i shy away from marriage the institution or is it the commitment
i find i have the opportunity to embrace forever
it awaits me on the beach some somewhere south of here
not because i don't want forever but rather because i'm afraid of the risk
this coming from the girl who jumped twenty feet off the dam into the tennessee river before i learned how to swim and simply because someone told me i wouldn't
but there wasn't so much at stake then
just my life not my heart
