My Bride And I~
I Place This Veil Before Her Eyes,
And Just Before I Kiss My Bride
My Trembling Hands I Try To Hide.
Time Has Stopped, No Need To Bide,
I Kiss Her Lips, Our Hands Are Tied.
From This Ledge We Jump In Stride
To Welcome All That We've Denied.
And So It Goes, The Story Of My Bride And I,
On The Happiest Day Of Our Short-Lived Lives,
Just Thought We'd Set Our Love On High.
It Felt Like A Good Day To Die.
And So We're Dead, My Bride And I.
I Place This Veil Before Her Eyes,
And Just Before I Kiss My Bride
My Trembling Hands I Try To Hide.
Time Has Stopped, No Need To Bide,
I Kiss Her Lips, Our Hands Are Tied.
From This Ledge We Jump In Stride
To Welcome All That We've Denied.
And So It Goes, The Story Of My Bride And I,
On The Happiest Day Of Our Short-Lived Lives,
Just Thought We'd Set Our Love On High.
It Felt Like A Good Day To Die.
And So We're Dead, My Bride And I.

the ancients write,
shall soon
disappear,
into nothing.

fighting for the gold
she glides across
the ice with style and grace
skating as though she owned the ice
nailing each jump with expertise
sailing through the required foot work
then completes the
combination spins with extreme ease
such beauty to behold fighting
for olympic gold
