Message to My Future Husband/Life Partner
Please be patient with me as I still
Try to find the right light to follow.
Some days it feels as if all the thrill
Has left my body and as I swallow
Every breath, sometimes the poison
Has entered as an unwanted guest.
I know and realize you are chosen
For me only. Others have undressed
Me in the hopes of finding gold, but
I know you will find it in my eyes and
My heart. Every guy now is just a rut
Or temporary until you and I stand
On common ground together. You
Will find me when you least expect
It. I still beg you to have patience to
Last a lifetime. Others have wrecked
My spirit and treated my body with
No tenderness, but you will treat me
The way I deserve. You cherish the pith
Of who I am. It is on your bended knee
That you promise a future. It is when
You meet me at the end of the aisle that
You promise to love me all over again.
We will be in a life that is no longer flat.

Lovely, Elena! Even though you do not know who it's for ( I imagine ), it's so heartfelt, like inside yourself, somewhere, you do know exactly who it's for. Best of luck in the comp!
