A Confession before the Wedding - Will you now say Yes?

I am just me. A make-believe

Before you choose me

To be your half in wedlock

I think that you should know…

I am just me,

A make-believe,

A picture in God’s canvas

That we call creation.

I am just me,

And at any moment

I could appear to disappear,

To return once again

To God’s own Ocean.

I know I am just me,

A make-believe in a fairy tale

Composed by God the Writer.

How could I have ever known that

In one chapter, you would come to me?

For all this eternity He has

Hidden you far from me.

I am just me,

But since I saw you

And you saw me,

The world has become different…

The forms are more brilliant,

The colours are more vibrant,

The tastes more vivid, the sweetness is sweeter

And the sadness is so much more sorrowful

In a world that is like yet unlike my own.

I am just a stranger here, my love.

And I shall try to please and praise you always,

Only that I ask you be patient and kind to me.

For I am the weak one,

A spark thrown out of the Sun,

A dervish in the wilderness

Doomed to roam,

Until finally you came,

And you called me home.

Will you now say yes?

Have a perfectly eventful day, sunshine. We are all make-believe, yes? God made us, up to us now whether to believe...

wa min Allah at-taufiq.
