An Imperfect Love Letter for a Perfect Love

My Darling,

I just know. It is a feeling I have never experienced. It is a feeling that cannot be expressed in words. It is impossible to put it in words. There will always be something more to add and even then it will not describe it.

Okay, let me try.

Right from the start I knew I was falling in love with you and I was trying to stop myself that is why I sent you that letter telling you about being a bum. All the jobs I had done and so on. I was thinking that once she knows she will just tell me to get lost and that will be that. I have always been unreasonable in my approach to things, but I could not deny how I was feeling. I used to read all your answers, even the difficult ones and other answers I could not even understand.

I know I love you because I can't stop thinking of you.
I know I love you because when you are not there I feel empty.
I know I love you because I feel you are a part of me.
I know I love you because you took my heart and I let you.
I know I love you because I love you.

What is the use of going on with this description. It will never say everything.

Okay, I know I love you because I have realized that you are as big a Dumbo as I am.

Happy now?

I LOVE YOU,
Albert

Sadness...


Sadness is what I feel, when I thought of you today.

I feel confused, uncertain of what I have to say.

Do you truly love me or just your favorite toy?

To use and then keep out of sight, when you no longer enjoy?



Sadness engulfs me with an eerie stillness.

I tried to look for you amidst the gelid blueness.

To reassure myself that the love is still indeed a true perception.

Or is it just the product of my fertile and rabid imagination?

This Love...


This love is like a fountain, undaunted and unfeigned.

It wafts through closed door awnings and shouts in purple paint.

It’s flighty as a butterfly, but only when in the doldrums.

It soars up in the sky amidst the rainbow’s vibrant columns.

This love is like a turtle, so slow but oh so sure.

It creeps in virgin forests and washes away the burr.

It shines like brilliant light rays, amidst the sparkling rains.

It warms like ginger-clover to compliment sand’s grains.

Fate

I touch your face and shiver at the pleasant sensation.

Your warm, carefree and happy disposition,

has always made my day without a question.



I want to stay with you my whole life through.

And bask in your refuge and umbra too.

And spend the long and lonely days with you.

Love Note to the Best Father in the World during Father’s Day

This is a love note to the Best Father in the World during Father’s Day.
It is late I know, as usual, and   you’re not surprised, I can surmise.
That’s me, your daughter, always   late and not willing to compromise.
But Papa, in my heart, my love for you   is the deepest.         
Because  for  me  in   the  whole  wide  world, you’re  the best.

This is a love note to the Best Father in the World   during Father’s Day.
You have never left my side when I was young and silly.
And even now that I’m an adult, you still put up with my iniquity
You’d tweak my nose when I cry and would make me smile.
Still trudge with me amidst your wobbling knees and walk a mile.

This is a love note to the Best Father in the World during Father’s Day.
Your gentle ways  and  effusive love always abound.
You’d skip a meal or two waiting   until I’m around.
Your wisdom and gentle guiding hand make my days happy.
Your generous and encouraging words give me felicity.

This is a love note to the Best Father in the World during Father’s Day.
And that honor belongs to only YOU,  Papa dearest.
I know, it’s not enough for the best in the world, nevertheless.
I'm greeting you with all the love in this whole, wide world.
Happy Father’s day to the Best Father in the world!


Love Letter for Someone I Miss


Dearest Kevin,

I don’t know how to start this letter. You’ve been  gone  for only  10  days  and it  feels  like  you’ve  been   away for 10 decades.  How could I express how I long to hear your voice every morning when I wake up? How could I tell you that I yearn for your smell when I snuggled under the bed sheets?  How can I let you feel how I have longed for the warmth of your kisses and love?

I stand in line at lunch and think back to the time that you pampered me with delicious muffins and fast food marvels. They seem to taste bland now and I barely touched them. The once colored environment has turned gray and my breath hangs suspended whenever I see that red and green color that was familiar to us.

And do you remember the numbers 515? 418 and 222? LOL...I am smiling now as I have nearly placed a bet on these numbers at the lottery jackpot.  Now, I know you’re smiling too, as you were the one who have mastery of numbers and dates.  I have always marveled at your skills in math.

What about the time when you and I thought it would be cool swapping our t-shirts.  Your scent on me and my scent on you. That was totally juvenile…but it made as happy. Simple little things that made our days so much fulfilled.

Now, I’m staring at the spaces in my screen and know that I cannot simply express the depth and length of how much I miss you.

Suffice to say that the thought of you and your love have kept me going and alive.

Take good care of yourself and try not to miss me as much as I do you.

With so much love,
Lucille
