Behind

The thunder booms so deeply

The silence screams so sweetly

They jump from the windows

The little girls fix their bows

All is ready for the ceremony

Where the two will be joined in matrimony

What he doesn't know won't hurt him

She says going out on a whim

Proceeding to kiss the man she loves

Everything was planned perfectly including the release of the doves

C'mon, you can't blame her

She'll be forgotten soon, young sir

Something needs to be done to keep her on the radar

But I'm not sure she's so worried about the radar

This is her day to be a princess in white

She closes her eyes with all of her might

The tears run down her face

The smudged makeup staining her lace

These are not tears of joy

They are caused by a certain ploy

Her fiancée stands at the end of the aisle

From where she stands three feet feel like a mile

Lost for words and actions she runs

Swerving and passing through people her feet feel like tons

This is just another example of another life gone sour

Because of love, money and power
