I don't know who you are,
Or where you're from.
I don't know your name,
If you're Harry, Dick, or Tom.

I don't know what you look like,
Having dark or light hair.
Are your eyes blue like mine,
And is your skin fair?

I know one thing about you,
Just one thing for sure--
That you love my Jesus,
That He is your Lord.

Nothing's between us
If that is not true.
Although this might hurt,
I love Him more than you.

You might never read this,
Odds are that you shan't.
I'll show you this someday,
Keep secrets I can't.

There may not be trumpets,
Horns, or loud noise,
You might work with kids,
Handing out toys.

I'll find it out slowly,
Granted, I'm dense,
But I'll figure it out--
It's a woman's sixth sense!

I'll know you're the one
God's given to me.
The one who I'll love,
Yes, my husband you'll be.

Please come to me quickly.
I wish you were here.
I'm longing to meet you,
When I do, there'll be tears.

No, not tears of sorrow,
But rather of joy.
God found me a husband,
My own, treasured boy.


The author's comments:
The story behind this is really weird. I had just finished watching Aladdin, and drifting off to sleep, when I remembered something my dad had read that night. IT was in a book by Robert Fulgram (love that guy!) and it was about his 12-year-old granddaughter. The short version is, she had been thinking and worrying about her future husband. Mr. Fulgram gave a charge to "him" at the end of the story to take care of himself. I was thinking "Wow, wouldn't that be cool if I could send a message to my someone like that?" Then this poem came to me. Like I said, there are millions of men in the world, and odds are that he won't read this until after we're married, but it was fun to write, and the idea of my someone actually reading this is PRETTY COOL. Anyhow, hope you enjoy my poem dedicated to my husband, wherever he is.

Awww, thanks! That's the same thing i told myself. If the guy doesn't <3 Jesus, then all we can b is friends. If u like this, read some of my other stuff and tell me what u think. I need to no the opinions of people besides my friends! lol. Btw, i <3 ur profile! I agree w/ pretty much all of ur faves.  And yes, lipgloss does count as a gadget if the Bible does.
