Talk is CHEAP

Sent to me on December 25th:


My Shining Flame:

I felt like writing a few words to you about the last 10 days which have become such a huge part of my experiences. Bear with me, as you might find a lot of this tacky, but that’s the way I do things. Just appreciate and know that this all comes from the heart.

I don’t know if you realize, but the level of emotion, intensity and passion that we’ve accumulated thus far has happened over the course of a mere 10 days… and all I can say for sure is that I am stunned. I am stunned by every aspect of you, by your very sight, so elegant, so feline, and so utterly beautiful. I’m stunned by the way you kiss me with meaning and fervor, with those most supple and soft and totally delectable lips. I am stunned by the way you look at me, your eyes sending a gaze with such penetrating quality that I have no defense to resist, except to have my heart melt under your stare. I am stunned by your charm and wit, which turns every possible situation imaginable into something to laugh about, which moulds the words coming out of your mouth into poetry when you speak of your affection for me. I am stunned by your quiet and dignified strength and integrity, which earns the respect of your peers, and makes the meek and dishonest tremble in the presence of it; that strength reminds men who seek your attention that they should be prepared to be at their utmost, for that is the minimum which you deserve. I am stunned most of all, my sweet Sihaya, by the goodness of your heart. I know you are a woman of generosity and principle: remember that your kind is few and far between, and remember that those that deserve you are just the same. I appreciate this truth most of all, for it makes me realize that perhaps I have some of the same qualities that you might, and that I can have a chance to share with you. More importantly, this realization takes my imagination to meanderings about the ‘kind’ of love that can be built between us. And that love, I know, can be great, in its timelessness, beauty and depth.

Lina, you bring out something in me which I haven’t really experienced before, and I know it’s not the stupidity of hormones raging over the undeniable passion we have had over 10 days. Call it the cosmos, fate, or what you will, but, as cliché as it might sound, I feel like these past five years of my life have been nothing more than training and waiting… in preparation for your arrival. We fit together; even listen to those around you, who can see that obvious sparkle, that shimmer, which they only know the eyes of two star-crossed lovers can share. Only God knows what the outcome will be of this, but we can make his job a lot easier if we hold true to each other, stay steadfast through the trials and tribulations that come our way, and always to remember the nature of our first encounter, which I truly think was forged on the anvil of that pure love that certain people spend lifetimes seeking.

She is, and will always be, stunning: Lina ********* (last name)
Yours,
