Marry me again

I was scared the first time I took my vows. Incoherently, I said yes to all questions, but you never noticed I didn't say I do,  I only answered yes Sir, I was gamophobic.

I had a wrong perception of marriage or rather the society gave me a wrong perception of marriage,  where the woman is expected to be voiceless and non existent.  

Where it's a societal norm for the woman to bear endurance as her marriage birth name, where you lay as a log when been ridden for fear of been labeled loosed and sent home. 

Some were even ostracized by mutilation after birth just to tame their sexual ability and it was a taboo for a wife to see her husbands loins... 

But then you reconfigured my mindset, you taught me things I never thought existed, You made me bloom radiantly and made everyday with you a blessing.

You gave me a crown and made me rule my home as a queen, you protected me from all hazards, You gave me more and taught me to be more. 
You're a special kind specie of an African man.

Marry me again, let me love you with utmost sincerity.
Thank you for making me fly when I never thought I could actually walk.

Marry me again,  I want to walk down the isle with perfect answers to the the alter,
I do till oblivion, 
I do till eternity, 
I do till dusk,
I do till dust.
