Dear future partner.



Don’t worry much about anything



When you decide to



Grow old with me



Panic not about



The amount of money



You think you should



Pay to my parents



As a dowry.



Because marriage surly is not



An occupation between you and my parents,



It’s not about



Where you put your signature



And deal me with the affordable



Number of zeros you can put after any digit.



It’s not about



Making you feel that



I am solely your responsibility,



After leaving the place I grew up in.



It’s not about



You first purchase me and then ban me from



Being who I am and who I am meant to be



If only marriage could mean



My parents selling me and you buying me



There is no price on earth



Not even unlimited zeros digits after digits



That can buy you



The person I am..



Because all the way up here



My parents made me who I am today,



They taught me, the value of limitless bonding,



To love endlessly embracing my faults too,



To trust and keep hoping when days are ruined,



To be someone’s shinning sun when surrounded by heavy clouds,



To sing the melodious songs while the pendulum of life moves to and fro,



To never give up struggles and hard work determination and motivation



To apologize when I know I am wrong and



To live like a legend not refusing to stop shining when I know I am right.



To be array of hope sparkling enough to make life worth living.



To love limitless without explanation, justification and protestation



To be independent enough and roam fearlessly



Exploring and admiring God’s creation



And return to them with every bit of freedom I had.



No money ever will buy you a person



So of mama and papas princess.



If you intend to be grow old together



Let’s make marriage a contract of



Faith, love, family, peace and harmony.
