Love Letters

I have written him a love letter

well - a smitten letter

whatever.

an actual letter
on paper
in ink

mailed to his home


I love the idea of him holding it
holding something I have held

I love the idea of him opening it
smelling my perfume

is it wrong to want to make him want me
to be as distracted as I am by him?

to be swept away

I told him the other night that if I fall I want to take him with me
and

I think he would be more than happy for me to fall down the rabbit hole with him right now

but I'm going to cling onto the edge
just a

tiny

bit

longer

  1. It's awful when your kids are sick. I remember lying in bed and timing the coughs, to see whether my kid would get through a minute without coughing. I hope Pixie is doing better today!

    1. @Sin - sadly no.

      ok - that's not true - -NOT this morning - but much better now.

      and sleeping - with no coughing tonight

  2. Oh that's really sweet....

    Once mouse mailed Daddy a card...he told her she shouldn't wasted a stamp...Mr Romance...

    There's something about getting something in the mail...Dunno...think it's sweet...

    Will he write back?

    1. Hello Mouse,

      I think mailing it was sweet - but you DO live together.
      I wanted him to have it
      I'm not sure it will mean the same thing to him - -and that's not the point -- it means something to me

      and -- No, I doubt he will write back - he will show me he cares some other fine way

      and I will smile and be happy

  3. It's just horrid when our wee ones are sick--especially when they are young. Wait--I'm still the one who frets when my 9 year old gets something...we always fret--tis the price of loving them so fiercely. Sending lots of healing energies for Pixie...and hugs for you, B.
