“Broken Yoke”

I understand the things of God
being one with Him
I get it
but to those who don’t know Him
it might not make sense
so to be unequally yoked
can be devastating

the conversation
the sense of humor
the priorities
the meaning of life
all different

to be one with light
is one thing
but to be one with darkness
is another

but there are some who make it

the honest
open minded
and willing
allow others to be
and encourage them along the way

if you’re with someone who’s high in spirits
they lift you up
but if you’re with someone who’s always quiet
they pull you down

the trick is
getting back up

“Gambling”

I bet some marriages
are happy

I bet husbands and wives
have conversations

I bet they hug and kiss
and mean it

I bet there’s laughter
and endless smiles

I bet some pray together
walk together
spend quality time
together

of course
I wouldn’t put my money on it
