I wish someone would write me a love letter.
Be careful what you ask for. Not everyone is good at writing love letters. For example:
"My darling, your eyes remind me of you. Your lips remind me of you. Your chins remind me of you. In fact, everything reminds me of you except you. Let's go to the living room, and start living!"
--Groucho Marx
My beloved, since last i shared your sweet presence, you have been ever on my mind. The scent of you has eclipsed the headiest of blooms. My heart has skipped, and boomed and indeed missed several beats simultaneously in anguish at the loss of you. I have wept oceans, crossed dry deserts, appealed to gods i no longer believe in to return me to your loving bosum. I would gladly welcome my demise to sink once more between your thighs and drown in my own wantoness, that i would ever love you less. May your eternal light shine on those unworthy of your love.
@MissKathleen over the top was what i was going for ?
Yes, that is a lost art. I see handwritten love notes as personal marriage vows every day, in my work, and receive handwritten thank you notes often, but a hand written love letter to me (or from me) has been lost to the ages. Electronic letters, sorry to say, are the norm in this era.
When I was a young teenager, I remember getting "love letters" in the mail every few weeks from my "boyfriend" in California, while I lived in Washington. What a thrill it was to see someone, writing in his own hand, professing his love for me. Talking by phone would have been too expensive at the time, and of course there was no email or word processors to help with the format. So, the U.S. mail was the only way to keep in contact. Those days are long gone, for sure.
I haven't had a handwritten letter from a lover, nor written one, in decades. Emails and texts with only partial thoughts, usually fueled by anger, jealousy or trying to make up for a misstep is the closest to that, not complete or full positive thoughts.
I hope someday to have a love where I will want to profess my love by hand - or even by electronic means - but I don't want to receive love letters from anyone for whom I do not have affection for in return. Have received many electronic messages from men that make me want to cringe. Be careful what you wish for!
I would try, but knowing me it would become overly sexual and deviant and i would just end up blocked ????
@MissKathleen both? ??
@MissKathleen i usually take the path that feels right.
@MissKathleen i do alright ?
Its less "how its working for me" and more "its who i am".
@MissKathleen and i didnt say easy.. i said what feels right. Its a. "The Path of a Taoist " Group concept
How about a haiku?
MissKathleen you are
The answer to someone's dream
A real lean machine.
Lean machine may not work too well but I like it cause it rhymes.
Summer of 1980... I was in Navy Boot Camp. Every Letter to my GF started with a Poem and Drawing on Page One, Letters started on Page Two. I was a Former Commercial Artist so I will charge $5 to $10 for Drawings in the shipmate love letters. Later on in the Fleet I didn't charged for Poems and Songs... I was Married to My GF so I knew How Important Those Letters were during a 6 Month Deployment. I hope somebody write you a Love Letter!
