I do (not)

If the vows
That were meant to string
Two loving hearts
Together
Was a ritual
No more than a political venture
Would you abide by
That contract agreement?

If you had read the fine print
About eroding feelings
And coarse fingerprints
Eventually milling
What-has-been
Into nothing
Would you stay together
In hope for progress(regress)?

If you had known
That love stories
Did not always end with a
Happily ever after
Would you stake your heart
For an investment
Possibly of no return?

Alas, even if we had known
As we do now
We never could find it
In every fibre of our being
Practicality, and instead dream
Possibilities of an idealistic realm--
Even if we had known
We could never forgo.
