Once upon a time there was a couple
who loved one-another and argued for that very reason.
Though the topics of their feuds were often
highly forgettable they behaved as if
every argument was the end of the world.
After several years of this
and numerous complaints from frightened neighbours
the couple decided to get married.
They stayed married for decades until one of them died
and then the one who remained went on a few dates
with different people, despite being quite old by this time.
Life was no better or worse though usually
it seemed easier to be terrified and alone
than to argue over trivial matters
and willingly make a loved one cry.
