The Hijab of My Novia

When we first met online, all I saw was your beauty through your words and physical appearance. You dressed comely and modestly. Your hijab was cute and made me think of Mary the Mother of Isa. I see you differently than the others I have come across. You are speaking to my heart in words that only we can know. 

You were always having the proper attire. I did not have to be given the full acuity of the beauty that others would show me. Did I have any thoughts? you may ask. I did have thoughts, but it was not in the manner of quickness. It was in the manner of a long-term relationship. 

We constantly speak and learn from each other. Right now, we are taking a break and focusing on other factors. But we still learn Spanish. You have become more of a string within my heart. 

The day when we spoke and you did not have your hijab was a shock as I was able to see more of you. You were still dressed comely and modest. I know part of your story, and I see you as a hardworking single mother wanting more in life. By far you are the most interesting woman in the room. May God allow us to meet soon as we both made the wish through the candle. May we drink wine on a special occasion. Let God’s Will be done. Let these words be a kiss to your lips and heart.
