And as he lifted the veil..

It is a big day for her, not just big but the biggest.
All her life until now, she was a free bird,
Singing and dancing and laughing all through her days,
No one to question her, none to answer.

Pride gleamed in her eyes
Chivalry in her voice
Strength in her heart and
Confidence in her walk.

She was no less than anyone, she felt unstoppable.
She was the man to fight with the world yet so woman to feel for the unloved.
All her life she only knew how to go ahead and she did with grace.
Experience took over ignorance, courage over innocence, and she was shy no longer.

Until today, the biggest day of her life..
Today, a man will take her hands into his, and promise to be with her no matter what.
Today that man will promise her that she's not fighting alone any more.
Today that man will promise her that her life will change, and change for the best.

Definitely today is the biggest day of her life!

They all dressed her up, made her look more beautiful.
She was covered head to toe in beauty, yet she felt so vulnerable, a touch could burn her up.
She was never so unsure of her steps, which now lead her to him.
She was never so shaking with fear, fear to embrace the change.

In the midst of all her people, she felt she never knew anyone.
She wasn't sure if she was happy or scared, ready or unprepared, strong or shattered.
And now she is here and there is no going back.
Come what may!!

And as he lifted the veil..
She saw those eyes, hers as ever.
The newness in them, but as known as ever.
How could she now wait to start with "the rest of their lives".. Today the very yes today!
