My Greatest Day

The candle's flickering.

My eyes are burning.

My fingers bleeding.

The needle, faster and faster

As if it knows that not much time is left.

The candle's flickering.

There's silence in my room.

I hear the needle

Perforating the velvet.

The moment soon will come.

I hope it will always stay.

It will be a beautiful dress

For my greatest day.

My love and me joined forever.

Eyes still burning, I could have known.

I'm too excited, fingers sewed to the bone.

I'm bleeding but still no disaster.

The needle, faster and faster

As if it knows that not much time is left.

My bridegroom is longing for his wife.

The candle's flickering.

I wear the beautiful dress.

Ready to enter into my very last journey.

My love and me joined forever.

Nothing can ever come between us.

This is my greatest day.
