Love Letters to Umair

There has never been a moment, hour, or day when my husband, Umair, hasn’t filled, 

Perhaps even consumed

My heart and my mind

I dream in countless colors 

All the while, Umair and I are dancing side by side

Hand in hand 

Soft, sweet kisses, Umair gives me

I fell in love with a man a billion miles away from my world and life

And he has set my heart on a tilt-a-whirl

Captivated my mind 

Is all that I dream 

I carried his broken zipper and love letters, which Umair had written with me for three years until he came home

I am proud that he is mine 

I think I speak it every single day 

I love Umair, is there any more to say
