You are a woman whose honesty cannot be bargained,

Neither your virtues be compared,

As you

have genuinely engraved yourself,

To the true cause of righteous love.

Letter XVI

Dear Rosalina,

I have chosen to write this letter at this early hour before the sun rises. I just couldn’t wait for a Monday, Love. As much as love is patient, my desire and longing to talk to you are impatient. Again, what loss would I burden myself with? None, my Love. For you, I will break the traditions and laws. For you, I will give up on religion. For you, I will rather be an atheist. A lawbreaker. For you, I will eat the forbidden fruit. And, if it means breaking my boundaries, I will not hesitate. For what more would a man desire than the affection from his beloved?

Your letters my Love, have given me the warmth of your adoration. My heart is so much pleased and endeared to you like never before. Every day my life revolves around you. I am rooted deeply in your love. My devotions are filled with praise and glory, do you know why? Because you are the reason, I hold them. You are the motivation and inspiration that keeps me going. Whenever the thought of giving up, rises to imprison my mind, I reminisce of you. I think of us together. Together in the glorious future. You and I, a family bonded by the strongest power and force in the world-love.

On Friday, we had a worship night in our church. I have never seen the Hand of the Lord at work before like it was on Friday. Deliverance, healing, and redemption. But that is not what made attend the worship, my Love. I went because of us. I went to thank the Lord for the far He has brought us and to ask Him to cement and guard our love, to protect us from the malicious eyes and the temptation that brought Samson to his knees.

You are a virtuous woman, my Love. Without you, I would have already lost in this game of life. I pray that God will always hide you under His wings.

I love you, Till next time.
