I think it is really time for me to say goodbye to you.
Your entry into my life breathed life into me. It gave me an excitement for each new day and I looked forward with anticipation to each time I could see you.
In all of life, I have never really felt so at peace as when I was in your arms. I was enthralled by the beauty of you smile, I think it is really time... | As time has passed, it is pretty clear that you have drifted further and further away from me. I guess it is finally time for me to acknowledge, to you and myself, that our futures will take different paths.
My hope that destiny would bring us back together meant that I never really had to say goodbye. As much as that saddens me, As time has passed, it is... |
bewitched by the twinkle in you eye and overcome by the passion of your kisses.You certainly had an affect on me. There will always be a place in my heart that you will be fondly, fondly remembered, but it is now time for me to seek my own future.
I wish you the brightest future and I hope you find all that you are looking for...
With all my love,
Adam bewitched by the twinkle in... | Dear Michelle,
I seems odd to start a letter with Dear Michelle rather than My Love, Sweetheart or Princess. My, life has certainly taken quite a turn.
Though we have been apart these months, I always believed that life would bring us back together. That hope was a comfort and gave me the patience to wait for that future. Dear Michelle,

Dearest Linda,
“I” is not a word that you say very often. You’re humble. You’re strong. You
don’t ask for much. In fact, to ask for a simple glass of water is upsetting; you
want to get it on your own. You don’t want to inconvenience others. It’s too
much. I do get it. You are tired of being cared for. You are tired of asking. Dearest Linda,

I want to see you use that smile for 10,000 more days. I want to see you use that gentleness to touch a 1000 more souls. And I can’t wait to see where that zest takes you – to which mountains tops.
Your very happy husband I love that about you and... |
One glance and I was hooked for life. Your smile and your gentleness are a wonderful match made in heaven. God drew that smile on your face and then poured gentleness in your heart. No wonder I’m so in love with you. You were made perfect by God, for me.
You have a zest for life that is contagious, a smile that melts my heart, and a gentleness that warms my soul. One glance and I was hooked... | My wonderful wife,
Zest for life exudes from you, regardless of whether you’re down or not. You want so much out of life, and you don’t hesitate to go get it – even if from your sickbed, while held down for reasons out of your control. A lesser woman would not be able to show the smile that graces your face most every morning. And I must say it’s the most the beautiful smile I ever saw., My wonderful wife,
Zest... |
We’d live at the beach with an ocean breeze and an old porch with some rocking chairs you fixed up nice. They’ll have a new coat of paint and a throw blanket over the back. I can just see you sitting there – rocking, enjoying your margarita. You’re beautiful, with your hair gently catching an ocean draft, your eyes glimmering in the sun rays bouncing off the sand.
We’d live at the beach with... | The sugar is melting and the lemon seeping fast.I want to be there now, at the beach on our porch, enjoying God’s creation – the smell, the majesty of seemingly endless waters, the sand and my favorite of all God’s creations – you.

Looking over the rail, you smile as you watch me approach. An old porch painted white with fencing all around and a gate that swings open easy as I wobble in from a morning bike ride.
I can’t wait to come home from that bike ride! To see you sitting there next to a fresh batch of homemade ice tea, just off the stove with ice still crackling from the stress of its encounter with boiling hot water.

I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
I do not love you

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

This is beyond
any religion.
Lovers do not require from God any proof,
or any text, nor do they knock on a door
to make sure this is the right street.
They run,
and they run.

... | The Circle Around the Zero
A lover doesn't figure the odds.
He figures he came clean from God
as a gift without a reason,
so he gives without cause
or calculation or limit.
A conventionally religious person
behaves a certain way
to achieve salvation.
A lover gambles everything, the self,
the circle around the zero! He or she
cuts and throws it all away.

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing
The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.

The free bird leaps
on the back of the win
and floats downstream
till the current ends
and dips his wings
in the orange sun rays
and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird that stalks
down his narrow cage
can seldom see through
his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.

I love with a passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, -- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! -- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
