You choose a partner to grow old with,
prepare vows to keep them with you,
battle every day to raise offspring,
all, so you wouldn't have solitude.
And Love???
You love a person to see them happy,
to be understood and cared for,
do the same for them whatsoever,
even if there isn't a promise to stay.
Some are lucky to have both.
Some settle for either one.
Some keep searching and struggling.
And some, they give up on both.
