A Love Letter To My Husband

The story of a King.

A Love Letter To My Husband
Franklyna Gabriel-Delva

To My King,

I am writing you this letter because I love you, and because you mean everything to me. You were handpicked for me by God. You are my King and I am your Queen.

I am your most valued possession. You have shown me the love that my father always wanted for me. You care for me when I am sick, you lift my spirits when I am low. You are a provider and everything that God has prepared for me. The amount of love that I have for you cannot be expressed in mere words and so I try my best to show you how much you are appreciated every single day. You are worth more than the world to me.

When I became sick, you were there for every appointment. You were there for every shot, for every disappointing test result and for every time I cried "why me?" You were there to put food in my mouth when I didn't want to eat and you stayed up with me when I couldn't sleep. You even made sure to notice when I was struggling even when I tried to hide it because you knew how hard it was for me to admit that I needed help. You were up all night in the emergency rooms with me. You put a smile on my face when I had forgotten how to. You give me my injections because I'm too chicken to take them myself and I cannot thank you enough for the amount of love that you have shown me because even when I didn't want to admit it, you showed me that life is worth fighting for.

But I am afraid...

I am afraid that some people don't understand your worth. I am afraid that people fear your majesty and may seek to take my King away from me. I'm afraid that they don't understand how important you are to me and that you have a family who loves you.

When I think of it, my stomach turns, my spirit weakens, and my mind is a blur. I am distraught and unable to understand why they can't see what I see. After all, how do you overcome the thought of being robbed of a God given gift?

But because you are a king, you don't let it phase you. Your crown remains untarnished. You know that your kingdom is not of this world but have decided to bring a little peace of heaven to earth. You take the necessary precautions but continue to treat everyone the same no matter the color of their skin or the uniform that they wear.

You continue to spread love to everyone that you encounter and pray for peace. You know that the only way to truly achieve peace is to represent it. Your noble character is what follows you and what will be your legacy. You are thoughtful, honest, courteous, above reproach, and a person worthy of respect. You are the love of my life and royalty among men.

I am blessed every day that I am able to spend with you and call you my husband. You are a King made in the image of God himself. I am inspired when I see that the troubles of the world do not shake your belief in humanity or your faith. You wake up every morning, the same caring, funny, thoughtful person that I married. So thank you......

Thank you for being exactly who you are. Thank you for not letting anyone shake your self- esteem and thank you for being my husband.

I still have my fears, but for as long as you are mine, I have a guardian angel on Earth.

Yours Eternally,

Your Queen


P.S. In case you didn't know..... I love you.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.
