Married life is always at its best,
When it’s simply based on harmony,
Not a free for all contest.
Does it really matter who'se right or wrong,
the main thing in life is how you get along.
Marriage isn’t quite the same,
when you introduce the guilt trips run by mr.Blame.
And remember before you start to moan,
you might just have a little fault to call your own.
Theres a game that only two can play,
write a list of all your partners good points each day.
And after all his bad points spring to mind,
you’ll discover that your own will be much harder to find.
Take care of things your good at, your partner do the same.
Allow for each other’s weaknesses, helping each other be your aim,
and sometimes when things are in a mess,
remember that love is the fuel of happiness.

I really like the last two lines. You might want to check the use of the word whose opposed to the word who's (who is) spell-check can't tell since both are words.

Very good marital advice indeed. "Allow for each other's weaknesses and helping each other be your aim"
Good luck in the contest and thanks for joining in wishing Valley Girl and Matthijs all the best for a bright future together.

Thank you for your kind words

A nice poem. At first I thought it was a little off topic, it seemed to be more of a marriage guidance poem rather than a heartbreak-ish poem. But then I thought maybe its a poem to avoid heartbreak.
Some good points you make in your poem.
Thanks for entering and good luck,
Sunny
