Letting go of your hands
but it only gets harder.
Look into the mirror, actions speak louder
Falling through the clouds of puff
Having your head in face powder
Laying in flowers
Laying in dust covers
When will I land
In Dreams Of Recover

The bride and groom prepared their own vows:

Charlotte Ann, the day we met I had lost everything, my family, my home, then you came walking into my life, a bright light, you taught me to breathe again you taught me that I didn't have to fight alone.

I promise to stay by your side and challenge you and love you for as long as there is breath is these lungs.

Tears trying to leave my eyes.
One simple question
had me turn to color white,
It had me falling to the floor,

It replayed over and over in my head
Torturing my brain.

It was a simple question
Not even directed to me,
It was rhetorical, but even so
It made me think.

"How many people know who you really are? "
The question had me tremble
Because my answer was
"None..."
