A Girl Can Only Dream

I remember my excitement
And my exhilarating heart
That was with me as
I approached those
Enormous, wooden doors.

The girls start to panic
As names are
Being heard,
Last minute hairspray
Fills the air,
Quick, fiery lipstick
To the mouth.

The bulky doors peel open
As we reveal in sight,
Our glistening teal gowns
And hair curled so tight.

I remember my look
As he announced my name,
My sweaty palms clench
And my heart
Skips a beat.

The blaring, loud noises
And waves of our bouquets,
Made the experience enchanting
And a feeling a girl
Can only dream.

With a flash of an eye
My entrance is all over,
My face at ease
And hands resettle.

I stand next to
The bride,
Her beauty so pure,
Eyes that sparkle, and

I imagine myself
One day,
Having another
First time, walking down this
Aisle.
