Dear Future Husband

Just some things I want my future husband to know before we meet...

Dear Future Husband, 

I pray for you every day. 

I pray that you're kind, 

and brave, 

and honest, 

and faithful, 

and sexy, which sums up everything I just mentioned. 

Dear Future Husband, 

Don't try to impress me. 

If you see me raging mad, 

or crying hysterically, 

or with no makeup on, 

and you're still in love with me, 

That's impressive enough. 

Dear Future Husband,

I rarely make promises

because I'm terrified of breaking them, 

but I promise that when you get home from work, 

I'll give you a kiss, 

and let you pat my butt. 

You're welcome. 

Dear Future Husband, 

Every ounce of love, 

I can't give away now, 

I put in a piggy bank

and save for when we're old,

and all we want to do

is eat cream puffs and cuddle. 

Dear Future Husband, 

The moon is full tonight. 

I find it amazing that you'll see it too. 

I hope, one day, when the moon doesn't glow

and the sky is so dark that you can't see a thing, 

you can find some comfort in this little fact: 

My love for you drives all darkness away. 

Author's Note

I wrote this poem while listening to "I Will Stay" by We are the Fallen. It's a great song to play for a sweetheart. I hope you guys enjoyed this one! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!

Love this! It's very beautiful and straight from the heart. :)
Don't worry, he is out there. You will most likely find each other when it's least expected.

[Elisa]

Thank you so much :)

[Rm]

Very sobering poem...excellent

[Elisa]

Thank you!

[Rm]

Your very welcome:)

[Thaddius]

this is really sweet, and disarmingly funny so as not to be saccharine. love 'pat my butt' - I mean, because it's good writing. Really though, it is. I think I'll be a bachelor till the 2030's, but this makes me hopeful even still

[Elisa]

Wow thank you so much! That really means a lot to me. Yes, take heart. You'll find someone :)

[Thaddius]

or, possibly, multiple someones, if i pack up and move to salt lake city, amiright? jk. I'd never move that far from a coast

[Elisa]

LOL hey I'm not judging. Same though. I love the beach.

[Thaddius]

yea my soul has so many components I'm thinking I might require multiple soulmates. Wouldn't it be great if there was one central component that outweighed all the other stuff I thought I had to counterpoint? It would be like shopping last minute for thanksgiving, looking down at the list, and reading: Turkey. Period.

That wasn't so bad, guess ms. list writer got everything else I need

[Elisa]

But then you'd have a one-dimensional soulmate. We all have multiple components to us. Why not find someone with complexities that compliment yours?

[Thaddius]

compliment, yes... replicate, two, three, four, maybe... there has to be one main thing that I need, and everything else, interchangeable. One most important ingredient. But you are right. I was only fantasizing about finding out what it was, and yeah, dreaming of it absolving all the other missing traits. I'm an idealistic cynic, I guess

[Devons]

A poem which has the ability to bring out a warm smile from the reader. It has a lovely lightness of charm and a kind of sardonic innocence about it; like a child making wishes at bedtime. I say sardonic because I can't help feeling that there's a sense of sadness and hope intermingled somehow - I don't know, perhaps that's my interpretation of optimism. But hope wins the day, I think:
"Dear Future Husband,
The moon is full tonight.
I find it amazing that you'll see it too. "
That's lovely.

[Elisa]

How did you get inside my head!? Haha thank you so much for your incredibly thoughtful and insightful review. You hit the nail right on the head with everything!

[C]

This is nice. It's the exact message I want to send for my dearest future husband. :)

[Elisa]

Thanks so much :D yeah I kind of wrote this as a stream of consciousness. This is exactly what I want my future husband to know too!

[Jamestown]

Well penned!
I find this very creative and interesting:)
I have a friend of mine that has kept a diary
