It takes a lot more than love to keep your marriage vows.

That’s the awful truth. Sad, but it’s the truth that people have to face. But perhaps we have been warned beforehand - by none other than Tina Turner through her shout outs while singing ‘What’s Love Got to Do with It’. I’ve always like the song ever since my high school years, but back then, little do I know how much it reflects our real life situation.

Fairy tales may have long polluted our minds with the abundant possibilities of happily ever after, but as we grow up, we know more that it takes more than just love to have a happy ending. Marriage problems can arise from various problems. Factors like a couple’s age, past relationships and bindings, children, family and parents, money as well as developing interest of a partner are taken into the bigger picture of what it takes to get a marriage alive, going and kicking.

Here’s another string of romantic short love poems that I managed to collect for everyone to enjoy. It’s just that this time, I’m narrowing it down to ‘Marriage Proposal Poems‘. Saying it in poetry is one of the ways of proposing, especially to those who wanted a little difference in approach. Anyway, thanks to everyone who has contributed!

I come here today, I’m kind of nervous

You know how words get in my way

It should come easy, I’ve been rehearsing

I don’t know why I’m so afraid, to say

Will you marry me

Put our love and life together

Will you stay with me

For always and forever

On bended knee, would you take this ring

Will you marry me, please

Will you marry me

To be with you is what I live for

But at this moment I confess

Though I love you, God knows I love you

Deep down inside I’m scared to death, say yes

Part of a Song by Alabama
