Love Letters.
A pair of two separate words joined together to create something lovely.
I am a hopeless romantic at heart. I've dreamed too many nights about receiving a love letter. A letter that will make my heart flutter away and my cheeks blush. A letter where the words will be so dazzling they melt off the paper and pour into my soul. As you can see, I have put a lot of thought into this.
It wouldn't matter if the sender didn't have a writer's bone in his body, but when he wrote to me, he made simple words come together and form beautiful sentences, for me.
I want to write love letters too. To the man I marry, I want to write him words that can express my love for him. Lyrical, mystical, magical, Godly words that can be saved forever. Words that will go in the closet and come out ten, twenty,fifty years later smelling like old ink and has brittle pages from being opened too many times to count. Words that will still hold the same effect as when they were first written. Words of love and blessings. Words that show a beginning.
I am still in awe of words. They power they hold. To create and destroy. To bring emotion out of the reader. However they are arranged, they can hold so much meaning and do so much. Everywhere I go, there are words.
And the choice is how are we going to use them.
Would you want to receive a love letter? And from who?
I dream of getting a love letter. But I'm sure, if anything, I'll just end up getting a love e-mail. Not as beautiful, but guys seem too scared to send actual letters. "What if she hates my handwriting?" "What if i misspell a word and don't have spell check?" If a guy did send me a love letter I would love him forever, unless he was just a creeper. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, yes I can see them thinking that! I think it would be the thought that counts that makes it the most romantic, but like you said, not a creeper. :)
DeleteYES! I can't wait to receive love letters from my future husband someday. And hey, I don't let the fact that I don't know him yet keep me from writing to him. I have a stack of letters I've written for him over the years, just waiting for the day I marry him!
ReplyDeleteI also have been writing to my future husband, I just have always thought I was the only one! That is so great!
