For awhile I tried...

Dear Future Husband,

I thought i knew who "you" were. Maybe I still have a lot to learn. 



You will laugh cos you can't believe the obstacles i went through to get to you. 


Husband, my world is crumbling. Right this very second.

You have no idea. {Maybe you dropped something in your steady hands and got a feel for your future wife's pain and didn't even realize.} 

dearest husband, i need to stop settling for anything less than butterflies. Dearest Husband, i am making a vow-- even before i know you-- to have a relationship with myself and admit OUT LOUD my downfalls. It's a hard thing to do--- but i am done pretending. I am yearning for something more, something lasting. Dear Husband, you should know that your wife... your wife prayed for you. She did. She walked away from something unhealthy, as much as it hurt her to, she did. She did for you. Because dearest husband, you deserve me--- the real me, the me free from guilt/free from shame, READY, ready to take on this life with you. TO LET GO OF EVERYTHING ELSE.

Oh my dearest husband, please hug me again because i have waited patiently and impatiently for your embrace.

and husband? that's all i need. your embrace. your unguarded embrace. In that embrace i find love, understanding, consolation... because my God you've been there too. YOU GET ME. It is all i ever wanted in life. I love you future husband, more than you'll ever know....


so please hurry up and save me? 








"Darling, it’s alright
She said at the end of a fight
Don’t let the money and strain
Play us a fools again

For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun

Honey, it’s ok
I said at the end of a day
We’ll find a place to go
Somewhere there’s no one we know

For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun

For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun

For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun

For a while I tried
For a while I won
For a while I held your hand
In the setting sun"

A'n'G Johnson said...

I'm sending you lots of love! You will save yourself, and in that moment, when you find that you don't need anyone else to make you whole, he will walk into your life and fall in love with your confidence, your ability, and the all around you that you already are (faults and all). so trust in your faith, and trust in you. You will survive this, and be better for it. And yes, your future husband, will love you immensely for all the trouble you've gone through. love love love. email me if you want!

little luxury list said...

Darling, would you accept a hug from a friend? I hope you are doing ok. I just wrote a post about servicemen and your dear brother. He sent me a flag and I was so touched. I really have been wondering and should send you a proper email. *Hugs*

micaela,

you shouldn't.
you should never settle for anything less than butterflies.
if i had a dollar for everytime i thought i had maybe found "the one"
well.. than i'd only have 5 dollars.
which is still enough to buy a chai tea and sit and cry about not finding him yet. but you will!
YOU WILL FIND HIM.
you are far too fabulous and deserving not too.
keep your head up girl.

we're all rooting for you :)
