WHY I NEVER MARRY

Now you understand
why I never married.
I was waiting for you.
Waiting for you like
The night watchman
Waiting for dawn.

I felt your presence
And absence
In equal measure.
You spiritually fought
off suitors.

You wanted me whole.
Untainted by millennial
marriages.
Unburdened.
Bereft of divorce's
blackmail.
Unclaimed.
Solely yours.
