She Is A Bride Of Life
A Vow
Commitment
To Live
To Love
A Vow
Today
Is the day
Now
Is the time
She promises
To do
The best she can
Stripping away her anger
Stripping away her pain
Stripping away her fear, her troubles
The world is as it is
Still as beautiful
Still as
Still
Whilst she stands before the mirror
She takes in her true reflection
Understanding that she is the portrait
Of her own creation
Putting on her adornments
She chooses well
Firstly her intention
Her desires come next
Her plan is wrapped around her
Until
She is ready
Breathing
Heavy
Slowly
Heartfelt
Illusions disappear
Dreams become reality
Life opens up before her
She wraps herself in all she requires
To take the next step
For if she is to be true
To herself
To others
She must at first be happy
She must give herself all she requires
She does not take this vow lightly
Knowing that others will watch her
Admiration
Desires of their own
She is the Bride of Life
For every girl to dream about
For every mother to cherish
For every woman to become
Taking her time
She steps into the aisle
The beauty she has created
Surrounding
Palpable
Joyous
Abundant
Complete satisfaction
For one and all
The picture captured in her memory
For when times get weary
Lest she forget
For she must pass on this feeling
Her story
Her beauty
Her existence
Her legacy
She took a Vow
She Is A Bride Of Life
