    About this ebook

    Perfect in the guise of dreams I view you in the night
    More beautiful than the waking world and all within my sight
    And in the twilight of my thoughts you are forever by my side
    A place reserved within my soul no other can preside

    But morning comes so quickly and the ether starts to fade
    You return to just a memory and within I am dismayed
    So now the sun is risen and I can see all things afar
    I recall my heart is broken for I know not where you are

      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
