“If a star fell for every time I thought of you, the sky would be empty.”
Unknown
Dear Unnamed,
If only you knew the degree to which my affections run, you would know the startling amount I love you. I have loved you for many years, throughout which I have yearned to reveal myself to you. However, I mustn’t, for our love is an impossibility that will only bring me heartache. Therefore, my name will remain my secret, but, love, if you only knew. I love you with an intensity that could out-burn the sun and out-shine the stars. I love you like the bees do the gentle, radiating colors of spring. I need you in the way the ocean needs the moon, for without you, the motion that brings life would cease to exist, tides no more, all rhythm and life smothered. My love is a forestfire, a burning, uncontrollable, unstoppable passion in my blood. God must not know the magnitude of this love, either, for it would bring even Him to His knees.
Love,
Yours

Letter 05/01/21
05/01/21 Dear Unnamed, I keep thinking about the old times and how good it used to be. Do you remember how wonderful we had it? Do you ever want it back? Was life just what got in our way or did your feelings change? You showed me no respect at the end, but I can’t tell if you ever stopped loving me or if you were just overwhelmed with it all. If you never stopped loving me, I would like to believe that we could make things work. Maybe. But, again, you didn’t show me any respect, so wouldn’t I be showing myself no respect if I went back to you? It’s a complicated situation and I have a lot of confusing emotions. I want you back. But I don’t know if it’s truly you or what we had. I think it might be you I want back, but I might just be yearning for what we used to have.
