An Open Letter To Someone In the Future

I can't wait to fall in love with you.

See, I just can't wait to spend tomorrow with you. Not just tomorrow tomorrow, but all the tomorrows come. I guess that is why I'm still hopeful because I know you're out there. I can't wait to be in that point of my life where I can say that "Yes, this is the grand plan." That point where I could let out a huge sigh and know that all the pain, sorrow and heartbreak that I have experienced in the past were all worth it. That point where I could be free from all the rocks thrown at me, the condescending stares, and all the people that try to bring me down. That point where I could just smile because finally, I have my home. I can't wait to wake up next to you in bed, with the sun shining in your face, with your eyes slightly opening, and with your sill grin that made me fall in love. We will eat breakfast together; I will be cooking. (No complaints) :)

We will do things together as much as we can, but not to the point to invade our own privacy. We will fight and there will be days that we would want a little space from each other but we will do out best not to go to bed with an unresolved conflict. We will have problems but we will always, always face them together. I will understand you as you trust me, and I will always try my best to be patient with you as you will with me. Our relationship, I know, will never be perfect but with these things-understanding, patience, and love-we'll get through anything. I'll be excited to change vows with you in the near future. I'm in no rush, but I've always believed that the goal in a relationship is to end up together, and that is what I pray for us. When the time is right, I want to be in a place that would best describe us; a forest, a garden, in the woods, right by the sea shore or in a church.

There will be our families and people we loved, while our favorites song is being played as a back ground music. We will go home together, with a dog waiting for us in our doorstep. We will have kids whom we'll shower with all our love, who'll be our lives, and whom we'd offer our lives to. You will be my partner in everything and you and our kids will be the most beautiful reasons why I continue to breathe. You, my love, will be my life. I can't wait for us to be that old couple sitting on the front porch, head resting on the top of each other even when we're old and gray. I want us to reminisce the memories we've had-good and bad- and feel the way they made us feel one by one. I want us to re-watch our favorite films together or re-read our favorite books. I want us to relive not the years we have spent but the memories we have shared.

I want our love to keep growing, no matter how old it gets, for in my eyes you will always be the same person, and in my heart you will always be the same, loving soul. But my love, all I promise you right now is FAITH. For it is the only thing I could offer you other than my love. We will still have a long way to go and the future is not as bright as we imagine it to be, but with my faith I will learn to trust that you are in my grand plan. We are not the universe, and our love is just a speck in the sky. We are not the most special or the most wonderful. We are not as important as the sun and the moon but today, whether I have or have not met you yet, I promise to give you everything I can. I promise to wait until that right moment. I promise to wait for all the signs I have asked God, And I promise to wait for that time when I could finally, finally spend all my tomorrows with you.


Love,

Ivy
