while I mussed your hair. I was so warmly filled with love for you that I could hardly contain it. Wednesday morning when we kissed goodbye before we left for the bus. My whole body ached with my love for you. I always have to pull away from your kiss because it seems to much of ecstasy than I can bear calmly. I feel as if I am a musical instrument that no one before you knew how to play. I realize I am warmly passionate and it is gloriously right - yet if you can't respond the same way something beautiful is going to die in my heart. Darling! why don't you write?
