Future Wife
DC Inato

If you’re reading this, please don’t be scared.
I’m not snatching you from the life you’re living,
Your dreams and ambitions you’re still pursuing.
I’m just here to tell you one thing:
“don’t stop to where you’re heading.”

I’m not your priority
not at this moment
But I’m telling you this
so you would live life- no regrets.
My role as your future husband is not
Not to make you live something that only I want

What I want might not be your dream,
And a few years from now it would seem,
Seem as if you would lose your identity,
Just because you married me.

So today, I say, Go...
Go do what you love.
Go learn your passions.
Go be an artist of your own creations
Go be an inspiration.
Go be the better person.
Go and accept challenges.
Go and face defeats.
Go and live life with audacity, even if it is not easy.
Go be the woman you want to become.
No, be the woman Christ wants you to become.
Go and pursue Christ, because only He knows your grand design.
Only in Him also, can we find each other's hearts.

I am not letting you go my love. No, no, no.
Right now, I’m on my knees praying for you.
Praying that in all your pursuits, God will be with you.
Praying that after God has chiseled all the differences
That may separate me from God and You,
The unchartered paths of our lives would meet,
At the point where God, our Friend and our Match-maker,
Will be our One and Only center.

Then at that moment I’ll wait
I’ll wait for God’s call,
Because only He knows it all:
The time when we first laughed at our first “Pica boos”
To the moment we stand at the altar and say our first “I Dos”.

Right now, I’m learning how to love you,
waiting on the Lord and praying
how to be the husband God has been designing
For you my love,
because it is you,
I’ve been dreaming of
I want to marry you.

I want to marry you not because I’m lonely,
But because God has lovingly blessed me.
To share this joy, I’d love to be
To be with you
In holy matrimony.

Someday, someday, my lady.
Someday, someday, when we’re ready
Someday, someday, when the time is right
Someday, someday, I’ll be with you day and night.

With prayers,
FH
