ARRANGED

Marginalized gender

Arranged marriages for prized birthrights

Secret Love practiced from afar

Fear of rejection

Still hoping for

True Love

Or is it

Wiser minds protecting the ignorant

Prostituted seed

Promised in advance

What’s Love got to do with-

The welfare of her heart

Is there Method in This Madness?

  1. We often want what we can’t have. I do believe realistically arranged marriages are the best. Yes, that is a wise way of doing things. Love changes the course of lives and not for the better more often than not. Thanks for the visit 🙂

  2. Hello.
    With an arranged marriage, it’s not usually about love, it’s about family respect and privileges. For some in an arranged marriage, love does come later, for others love neither comes nor does the marriage work. I believe we should be free to follow our hearts, even if it’s not what others want for us. I married for love and it was the best decision I ever made in life.

  3. For some it may work.. However I would like to think that all are free and can choose our own partners.. ‘Marriage’ is a man-made state whereby we give of ourselves to others not only in commitments in our vows but committing to law to promises we in general fail to keep..

    When in love – True Love needs no paper binding.. For True love speaks to the heart and the heart has unconditional love to give..to those it loves!..
