deja vu, that was what i was feeling walking down the isle once more but this time i was scared that something would happen again and worst that he wouldn't want to marry a painter who had nothing good to show for her life.

my white dress and veil still looked amazing even though the person inside it didn't feel so great at the moment, i accepted his pep talk in the dressing room and convinced myself i was ready for this, but right at this moment i wanted to run, far far away maybe even board a plane to India with melody and go off the map for a while but something was holding me back, something greater than my fears and my questioning judgement.

Was it the love i felt for this man? or his kind words that i couldn't bear to hurt him because i would be also hurting.  The thought of leaving made my heart lurch in pain and it made me feel empty. i felt a tear roll down my face but i was too caught up in my own mind to wipe it.

I reached the alter and i am suddenly pulled out of my thoughts by the priest talking only to be drowned again in my doubts, was this really what i wanted ? would he have outside affairs ? would i just be another trophy wife to please her husband.

i heard these stories before young girls that came from nothing get the break they would have been looking for. A rich man that told her he loved her, the most sort out version of the Cinderella story of rags to riches only to find out that he never truly loved her with all his heart and she had to compete with the different mistresses that he kept to give him the pleasure and desire he wanted to feel.

was he going to solve all our fights by throwing money at me thinking it would solve everything? and last but not least if we ever divorce because it did not work out, would he take my only life force from me the one that kept me alive for her sake all these years with out a father, would he take my Melody and have her growing up with a step mom.

" Alexis Gold do you take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband to have and to hold until you both shall past?" the question i have been dreading have finally been ask do i say yes or do i say no, maybe , but what if ?
