To The Man I Will Marry

Write me letters.
Letters not type-written; but letters
from your pen.
Write me not promises, but of truths
you intend.
Tell me not of love ruled by the heart
But of love that sprung from it.

Write me about your life I’ve never seen.
Teach me the avenues of your soul
That I have to know before we marry.
For I do not marry for love;
But I marry because of it.
A marriage of mind, of soul–
And yes, of hearts.
Write to me.
And through your words, let me
conjure you to my memory.
From your hand, show me how two worlds
–can meet and combine.
