Me, my wife and our married life
I got married in 2003
Life was young and free
I was 26
and I took the risk
I belong to a joint family
she grew in a nuclear family
Our thoughts were a mismatch
conversations were out of catch
She liked to have an open talk
I was a reserved lot
Her expectations were different
my ideologies were repellent
she was a career woman
I an ambitious man
I persuaded on my own business
her career was left in a mess
slowly I started understanding
life started turning
she became my good friend
our conversations are in blend
Now our marriage is in teen
Life looks all young and green
With my kids, my dear
Thank you God, my eyes in tear.
