Wife's Latter Poem by Felix Otiende

Relationship 15
Emotional letter to my wife

While walking I picked a bright red rose
I was living wild and reckless life until you changed it
Yes! Love is born out of mutual acceptance
Love is a choice and commitment
Love is sacrifice

You revised my deceased feelings and reinstated my dreams that were once shackled
You remind me of great county music artists Joe and Dolly
'If I were a carpenter would you marry me anyway? '
You are one in a million, married to an orphan without a proper lineage
It only work on fairy tale

I learnt that love is neither a duty nor a burden
But a gift from God
Without utter resolve and purpose there can never be love
So we should allow relationship to evolve and follow natural course
Wherever love may lead us

Love needs to be expressed many times and in many ways
Love is compassion and forgiveness
And you have shown it in million ways
Not only forcing me to pray at night but respected me despite my weaknesses
You are my free blessing from above

Not even death will scare me away
I will always stand firm in your path not to let you fall
I know am only bone and flesh, I won't promise perfection but learn from mistakes
I won't stop loving you.

Feel our love
You are love of my life
