to me
I have so many dreams for us, and I don't know if you share those dreams. But, if you don't, it doesn't matter. I know we will work things out. Besides, I'm pretty sure we have some similar dreams.
I keep thinking about that day when you told me I needed to set aside time to travel with you. I can think of no other request as idiotic as that. I want to hold you on high mountain tops. Scream your name with you nearby me. I want to travel by boat down a river, with you sitting near. I want to stumble through the jungle with you close by.
I imagine us living far away from where either of us is used to. Making homes temporarily, waiting for the day to move on. I see us exploring the world like no other duo could. We can find out more about this world together than either could have alone.
I desire the day when we are finally ready to settle in a permanent place. To raise beautiful and intelligent children. To find careers that allow us time to live and play. I know we will make beautiful children. I know we can give them a healthy start. I will never doubt our power together. We are strong. Invincible.
I may be an idealist, but who can blame me when I've found something so close to ideal, I couldn't dream of anything but. You make me happier than I could have ever imagined. Sometimes I still worry. Recently, I've been worrying again that there is something hidden about you. Something that will rear its nasty head, and turn me into a shell of a woman.
I feel at this time, and know it will always be, that I would be utterly destroyed if you hurt me. I love you because you are a dream, a fantastic illusion come true. I remember you once telling me of how Jose hurt Maria over so many years. How you would not do the same to your own wife. I ask you now, understanding you already agree, to always remember your mother. To always remember what an intelligent woman deserves.
I realize that I am preaching to the choir, but I worry with us being so far apart. I have not forgotten you, not for a moment. I just want to reassure you I dedicated my life to one man, and that man is you.
I give my embrace, my kiss, my home, my children, to you Javier. Most of all, I give you honesty and respect.
If you return the favor, I will never let you down. I will work to make us as happy as possible.
I promise this.
The woman who would do anything for you,
Your wife,
Mrs. Alia Day
