Cold Feet
We stood together eyes staring at each other
The numerous windows of sight staring back scared me
My prince seems far away from me
I feel the ground open and I got swallowed
Is he saying no?
I looked at the preacher, how long will it take to say I do
He talks about forever and hints at eternity
My heart sank
I have been trapped
I saw fair ladies in skimpy skirts
Bare chested girls dancing and shaking their butts
I looked at fine young men giving me a smirk
My head swells
Is this it, no more freedom
This can't be happening
Can I change my mind
Time ticked and stopped at the same time
Then my lips went wet
Beautiful eyes hovering over me
Hands like comfort drawing me close
Smiles like peace spreading on my lips
Joy like a river flowing through my soul
Then I knew this is it
All the fears were not worth it
My prince is now my King
And I the loving queen
Legs swept of the floor
I plunged into a dreamland
I got drilled yet not destroyed
A wave of passion swept over me
Time seems to stop
I seem to float
Tears begin to roll with loud shout of joy
Then I landed and felt his flesh
