A letter

                         A letter

I wrote you a letter. Just words to be read. I wanted you to know. You are my everything. My mystery to try to understand and comprehend. I know you have hidden thoughts and different life. I wanted to tell you. I need your silken skin against me and to hear your gentle voice in the midnight hours of living. I know you walk on delicate places and are afraid of self-made prisons. Sweet lady, love should not be a prison. Should be a place where people adrift in each other kiss and embrace. Not hiding the imperfections and allowing tears and sorrow to be free and safe. Just an letter my darling. Just words to tell you. I love who you are and what you are becoming.

Hi John, gone are the personal days of the letter. I Loved just to sit back on the couch and slowly peruse each letter sent. I take the letter for what it is my friend, a letter to a lady, a Love. Your words always have a gentle way John and i Love that. In the end it matters not how the letter would be taken, the letter in itself is a small work of art. The picture and the words complimenting each other in this little gem. Fly free my little bird and if your heart sings with mine you shall come to me. There are no prisons in Love. This, to me, is a letter of Love. The recipient shall know she is deeply wanted but it is her decision in the end what she wishes to do. As i say John, it says fly free, make your own choices. An excellent little gem. Your Friend....Vladislav.

Thank you Vladislav. I agree. A personal letter is very special. We can hold and re-read at-will.

Love should never be a prison, that's true. Love should be a journey of a two people where they can be themselves with sweet kisses and warm hugs.

Lovely writing my friend.

Your ability to express what is in your heart is exquisite - love the phrase about the midnight hours of living, and again walking on delicate places - really allows the reader to form a mental image of what you are writing to your love!!
The photo is also perfect for your words!!

What a sweet, sweet letter, CP. The emotion stirred by this piece reminded me of Love in the Time of Cholera. There's a typo error in here- "Just an letter my darling."

That is an awesome letter Coyote. "I know you walk on delicate places and are afraid of self-made prisons." This creates the perfect picture to explain how this women thinks, feels and how she loves. You expressed your feelings beautifully... one of my favorites buddy!
