A Sentimental Letter To My Only True Love

My dearest, darling lover, 
Through this electronic medium
I touch and caress you with my love

As you read these my words to you
Feel the tenderness of my lips upon your neck
The aching of my breast, molded to your chest

Stronger than the miles between us, is our love
Stronger than the issues that separate us, is our love
The vastness and continuity that envelopes our heart

I now wait with longing, my darling, and sweetheart
For the day, which seems to stretch each hour of the clock
When we will be one, as we should have been, so long ago

I need your touch, as the river needs the water to get along
I have been incomplete without you my sweetest love
I thirst for your loving, as the desert longs for the rain drops  


I wait, impatiently my love, with baited breath
Watching that clock, which I have confounded for ticking too slowly
For that day, that hour, that minute, that second, when you shall be mine
All mine.  I love you, so much, dearest, with everything that’s in me

So many great lines that express your love for David, Joy. My favorite is "I need your touch as the river needs water." That sums up the sentiments in your love letter so well! Wishing you success in Audrey's contest! Love, Carolyn

it's tough when you have to tell time by the calender. while waiting is not measured by minutes but by weeks and months. we thank God for the internet our closest friend keeping us in touch with the touch of our hands. our words supply the needs we need so much to give. something for the heart, a reason to live.
