LETTER TO MY FUTURE HUSBAND

Dear Future husband,

I keep seeing you, and wish to meet you soon.

I really want to see your face cos the face I see keeps my mind at sea cos that face is so blur I can hardly see.

I just thought I write this letter to you

And though we haven’t met yet, I still see my life with you and only you.

I hope you do too

The words in this letter have been on my heart for a more than a decade

Writing this letter, makes me feel naked

I don’t even know where to begin

My heart is racing right now because thinking of you just makes me grin

But this I do know

When we finally meet, it will be friendship and love

I don’t believe in love at first sight

But I do believe our love will grow beyond sight

I may play hard to get

Well that’s because I’m supposed to, but don’t see it as a threat

My dark eyes will brighten with the words “I LOVE YOU”

Anyway that’s a clue, so take a cue

To be honest

I don’t know what love is or how it feels

I've been hurt, wounded, and broken

But I hope with you I’ll learn what true love really is

That’s my appeal

I don’t want you to think I am asking for too much

But I hope you have lots of patience because with me you’ll need it bunch

I know I do have my moments but it’s just what it is, A MOMENT

I may be careless with my stuff, cloths, shoes

But with you, I will never ever care less

I may not be tall in height, but I hope I can climb your shoulder to reach higher heights

Don’t be intimidated when I climb the academic ladder

I’ll remain your neck and you, the header

I am an independent woman no doubt

I've always been

Please don’t hate me or feel emasculated when we go out for dinner and I try paying the bill

Or when we board a taxi and I pay the fare

This is not about feminism, it’s not about pride or what is fair

This is about me

You see, I've practically done things on my own, provided for myself without the help of any being

But with you, I’ll learn to accord your rightful place

And don’t be afraid to ask for help when in a tight space

I know I’ll believe in your dreams, but please let them be realistic

I want to live my life in a real world and not a fantasy that’ll just wipe off like lipstick.

I've kept my pride just for you for more than two decades

I know it’ll be difficult but please do not make me give it up

You must be thinking it’ll be hard

Yes it will be hard

When it turns blue in your front yard

I assure you when the right time comes, it will be ferocious

And with God as our teacher

It will be divinely gracious

Don’t get me wrong

I’m not a robot, definitely sure I’m not frigid

And oh, don’t believe me when I tell you I’m genophobic

I just want us to have a solid foundation

Built on the word in 1^st Corinthians 6:18

Please check out the quotation

I want to trust you with my life

You know what that means right?

So please do not ever lie to me, your wife

Be honest when my dress doesn’t fit

When my makeup doesn’t look good one bit

And when my hair is unkempt and not so neat

Be honest

My future husband

Husband, a word which relates to marriage

Marriage, a word so sweet yet ironically sends shiver down my spine

This fear is real it doesn’t just exist in my mind

I am a product of a marriage that was non- existent

Guess it ended even before it started

I just can’t fathom waking up each morning to the same face for the rest of my life

So I pray you make it worth my time

That our love like wine will grow sweeter and stronger with time

I’m not perfect, You aren’t too

Let us in our imperfections remain true

Yes we will argue

Yes we will fight

But together, let’s make things right

Because we owe it to ourselves and our kids

How beautiful it will be to see mummy and daddy watching a match between Barcelona and Madrid

I want us to be the best of parents

To teach our boy child that it’s Ok to cook

To teach our girl child it’s Ok to play ball

One more thing

Let’s make God the pivot of our institution

Don’t make me beg you to accompany me to a convention or church on Sunday

Because with God each day of our lives will be a sun-day

Finally my future husband,

I want to share not only in your joy but also your pain

So please don’t be afraid to show me your tears

Cos together, we will sail through our tearful river

This is not a wish, it’s a promise

And until I meet you, I’ll wait to fulfill it.

LOVE

Your future Wife
