FREE LOVE LETTERS

Love letter # 195

It doesn’t feel like a lifetime – but it is. One minute we were new – and now … here we are, kind of silent, wondering.

We looked away – surely it was just for a moment – and when we looked back everything had changed. The same – but different – and somehow, time had passed. That almost touchable day that was just yesterday is now years away.

And look … even the angels are getting old.

But we are more than remnants of half remembered splendour – because we are still here. Because I still love you – even if it looks like I don’t – and you must still love me – even though I swear it’s not true.

Is it just that I can’t do without you? Maybe. But there are worse things than that. At least I’m not cold. And I adore your beautiful smile.
