Love Letters

To Fanny Brawne:

I cannot exist without you - I am forgetful of every thing but seeing you again - my life seems to stop there - I see no further. You have absorb'd me. I have a sensation at the present moment as though I were dissolving ....I have been astonished that men could die martyrs for religion - I have shudder'd at it - I shudder no more - I could be martyr'd for my religion - love is my religion - I could die for that - I could die for you. My creed is love and you are its only tenet - you have ravish'd me away by a power I cannot resist.
- John Keats 

I Love You Forever by Kathy

Dear Josh,

It has been the most amazing 5 months of my life and I've already done things I have yet to actually realize. We have come a very long way and stuck by each other's side through a lot of pain. You have shown me what its like to love and be loved and that's my happiness. It's all I need to have the most amazing life I can possibly have, and thank you for it.

You've helped me understand a lot of things people don't think I understand or think that I'm allowed to understand which is what is making me a very strong person. I have a lot more respect for love and people who have it. To be mature, you have to be an adult. But to be in love, you have to be nothing but a human being with a heart. That is very much true. No ones parents should prevent their children from falling in love with someone because of their age and it's not allowed. You can't stop love, and you defiantly shouldn't put your own feelings on hold because someone is telling you "You're not allowed to love him because you're too young." You are everything to me, my life really, and I'm not going to give that up. I can't live without a life.

Honey, you are one of a kind and how people can say the things they do about you is beyond me. I don't understand why people don't see you the way I do. In my eyes, you are the most amazing person. You understand me and care about me more than anyone else has ever even thought about. You are so caring, and wonderful. You're lovely. We have a healthy relationship that is going to last a life time because you and I are willing to work at anything that needs to be worked at.

Josh, we are going to make our lives amazing along with someone else's. We are going to have an amazing family and an amazing home to live in. I know now that what we have is so very truer because I can see myself in you. I can see us in you, in your eyes. I wrote this letter to you from my heart. From mine to yours. I love you, Honey - forever.

Your lovely,
Kathy

Only You by Eliana

Dear Mike,

Although sometimes I question things, deep inside I know that you are the only one for me. When I'm not with you, you are the only one I'm thinking of. Everything about you tells me that we can be together forever. Only you can make me feel like time STOPS when I'm with you. Only you can make things better when it feels like the end. Only you can be the one to smooth my fears away. For this I'm grateful and I hope you never leave. I love you.

Love always,
Eliana

My dear (Name of the receipent)

There are things in life that are inevitable; I am powerless to control them. The Sun will rise and set, the tide will come in and go out, the seasons will change, the birds will fly South for the winter and return in the spring, and the caterpiller will transform itself into a beautiful butterfly. Somehow, I feel reassured by this because many other things in life are so transient - so momentary.

Neneng, from the moment we met, I knew that our friendship would develop into something lasting and precious, just as I am sure that the caterpiller will one day become a handsome butterfly.

Dearest, I believe that our love is blessed by God. It is a union of two spirits destined for everlasting happiness. Thus, you have truly become the star of my life which brings me light in this dark world, and warmth when I need it. You offer me the promise of renewal, the joy of living, the peace of mind that comes from sharing and caring, and that shoulder to lean on in times of stress. You are my Swallow from Capistrano - my precious butterfly, and I will cherish you and love you forever.

Yours Forever

Dear (Name of the receipent)

I am the same person and yet....
I have discovered that a friendship is something that lives and grows. It requires time,care and attention. It has its ups and downs, but sometimes the difficulties make it stronger than ever. I have discovered that there is something "mysterious" about this relationship between us. It is almost a thing in itself and yet there is nothing one can see or touch. I have seen changes in me because of you, and changes in you because of me. I am the same person i was before and yet, because of your presence in my life, I am different i have become more sure of myself because you like me the way i am. I am interested in more things because you are interested in them. I have grown as a person because of sharing so much with you.. and you too have changed, grown, and expanded.

I am learning tha there are things in life,the most important things, that i can not see, count or measure in anyway. The qualities and effects of frienship that mean most to me are the very ones I cannot really define or even described. Nor can I described my Love friend the more i know you and share with you, the more i discover about you. I think we could be love friends for more than 50 years and still find something new in each other. All i know about you my love friend is that I am better because of you.I am freer,stronger and happier.

Always,

2.) Sweetest Fanny,

You fear, sometimes, I do not love you so much as you wish?
My dear Girl I love you ever and ever and without reserve.
The more I have known you the more have I lov'd. In every way - even my jealousies have been agonies of Love, in the hottest fit I ever had I would have died for you.

I have vex'd you too much. But for Love! Can I help it?
You are always new. The last of your kisses was ever the sweetest; the last smile the brightest; the last movement the gracefullest. When you pass'd my window home yesterday, I was fill'd with as much admiration as if I had then seen you for the first time. You uttered a half complaint once that I only lov'd your Beauty.

Have I nothing else then to love in you but that?
Do not I see a heart naturally furnish'd with wings imprison itself with me?
No ill prospect has been able to turn your thoughts a moment from me.
This perhaps should be as much a subject of sorrow as joy - but I will not talk of that.
Even if you did not love me I could not help an entire devotion to you: how much more deeply then must I feel for you knowing you love me. My Mind has been the most discontented and restless one that ever was put into a body too small for it.

I never felt my Mind repose upon anything with complete and undistracted enjoyment - upon no person but you. When you are in the room my thoughts never fly out of window: you always concentrate my whole senses. The anxiety shown about our Love in your last note is an immense pleasure to me; however you must not suffer such speculations to molest you any more: not will I any more believe you can have the least pique against me.

Brown is gone out -- but here is Mrs Wylie -- when she is gone I shall be awake for you.
-- Remembrances to your Mother.

Your affectionate, J. Keats

3.) "Dear Love,

There isn't a moment that goes by without you gracing my memory. There isn't a moment I don't think of you. There isn't a moment that doesn't make me fall in love with you all over again. It doesn't matter whether you are with me or not, all that matter is your love for me. I know you will forever be my sweetheart and there is nothing on earth that can separate us from each other.

There maybe be times when I don't say how much I love you, but you be rest assured of the fact that my heart beats for you and it craves for only your touch. All the moments we kiss and every single experience that we share makes us both grow fonder of each other. You are my baby and there is not a single day I want to spend without you. Come to me darling and make me yours. I will love you forever, and ever and ever.

Yours Love"

4.) "My Love,

Hope you miss me like I miss you. I hope you care for me like I do. I really hope you love me like I do. You have been in my dreams since the first day I met you and since then there isn't a moment I have not thought about you. I want you as my partner, to face all the challenges life has to offer and I know with you by my side, there is nothing I cannot do.

I want to be with you and I want you in my life. Be by my side and the rest will fall in place. We will live life in the most enjoyable ways possible and there is nothing that can hold us back from being the best couple in the world. Just wait and be patient as I bring you all the joys of world.

Yours Only"

"My dearest angel,

I am… totally devoted to you.
I long… to hold you close to my heart and never let you go.
I love… your loving and tender touch.
I do … cherish and adore you.
In you I find… the greatest joy and happiness in my life.
You make me feel… appreciated and loved.
I love… to cuddle and snuggle with you.
I love… to look into your beautiful eyes.
You… inspire me.
You are… the Pearl of my Great Price.
Dream of a woman… that cherishes loves and misses you.

You are…
AWESOME!
Yours Love"
 

"Dear Hon,

Honey, you have changed my life completely. You're the one who makes me beautiful. You're the one who makes me strong. You're the one who makes me feel so important; you're everything to me.

You show your love to me every day. I thank God that I have found a man like you. Please forgive me for not giving you enough time to chat with me, but I promise I will make up for it once we are together.

All that I can offer you is a family. I can offer you a family that will stick together through the good and the bad. I can offer you a family that will support each other every day. Honey, that's all I can give...I hope that's what you want.

I really wish that you were near me. I wish that I could just call your name when I needed you and that you would be there. However, knowing that you love me so much is enough for now, and if I can be your wife and a mother to your children, then I would wait forever to be with you. Ti amo tesoro mio. You're the only one that I want.

Love Always"

2.) My Hero...by Julieann

Dear Brad,
Secretly you have taken each broken piece of my heart from all those before you and put it together like a puzzle. Our troubled times were those of which my heart was not put completely together, but once the last piece was placed, that was when I realized I can't live without you.

You are a great guy and I just can't imagine a day without knowing you. When you are not here I see you, I smell you, I feel you, I miss you... can't wait to see you again this weekend, My Love.

Love always,
Julieann

3.) My Heart's Last Dance by Tammy

Dear Bam,
It's been so long without you - I miss the times we had. You were always telling me how much you loved me and showing me your love in the perfect way, but I had to leave you my baby, for that I'm so sorry.

I hear that you haven't been so well since the last time we saw one another, and I hear that you still ask about me and send me "I love you's" through the air, I want you to know that they landed safely, Baby. I've sent you kisses and I hope that they hit the spot.

Well, I just wanted to let you know that you are never far from my heart or mind; I still love you and I will forever miss my "Bam" until God helps our paths to cross once more, I still love you.

Love Always,
Tammy

4.) To Fräulein Felice!

I am now going to ask you a favor which sounds quite crazy, and which I should regard as such, were I the one to receive the letter. It is also the very greatest test that even the kindest person could be put to. Well, this is it:

Write to me only once a week, so that your letter arrives on Sunday -- for I cannot endure your daily letters, I am incapable of enduring them. For instance, I answer one of your letters, then lie in bed in apparent calm, but my heart beats through my entire body and is conscious only of you. I belong to you; there is really no other way of expressing it, and that is not strong enough. But for this very reason I don't want to know what you are wearing; it confuses me so much that I cannot deal with life; and that's why I don't want to know that you are fond of me. If I did, how could I, fool that I am, go on sitting in my office, or here at home, instead of leaping onto a train with my eyes shut and opening them only when I am with you? Oh, there is a sad, sad reason for not doing so. To make it short: My health is only just good enough for myself alone, not good enough for marriage, let alone fatherhood. Yet when I read your letter, I feel I could overlook even what cannot possibly be overlooked.

If only I had your answer now! And how horribly I torment you, and how I compel you, in the stillness of your room, to read this letter, as nasty a letter as has ever lain on your desk! Honestly, it strikes me sometimes that I prey like a spectre on your felicitous name! If only I had mailed Saturday's letter, in which I implored you never to write to me again, and in which I gave a similar promise. Oh God, what prevented me from sending that letter? All would be well. But is a peaceful solution possible now? Would it help if we wrote to each other only once a week? No, if my suffering could be cured by such means it would not be serious. And already I foresee that I shan't be able to endure even the Sunday letters. And so, to compensate for Saturday's lost opportunity, I ask you with what energy remains to me at the end of this letter: If we value our lives, let us abandon it all.

Did I think of signing myself Dein? No, nothing could be more false. No, I am forever fettered to myself, that's what I am, and that's what I must try to live with.

Franz Kafka

5.) Napolean Bonaparte (1763 - 1821) to his wife Josephine

"Paris, December 1795

I wake filled with thoughts of you. Your portrait and the intoxicating evening which we spent yesterday have left my senses in turmoil. Sweet, incomparable Josephine, what a strange effect you have on my heart! Are you angry? Do I see you looking sad? Are you worried?... My soul aches with sorrow, and there can be no rest for you lover; but is there still more in store for me when, yielding to the profound feelings which overwhelm me, I draw from your lips, from your heart a love which consumes me with fire? Ah! it was last night that I fully realized how false an image of you your portrait gives!

You are leaving at noon; I shall see you in three hours.

Until then, mio dolce amor, a thousand kisses; but give me none in return, for they set my blood on fire."

When your hearts craves and beats louder for that special person, nothing can do justice to the way you miss your beloved than I Miss You- Romantic letter. Follow the style of letters mentioned above and induce it with your imagination to say out loud "I miss you".

6.) F Scott Fitzgerald Spring 1919

Spring 1919

Sweetheart,
Please, please don't be so depressed -- We'll be married soon, and then these lonesome nights will be over forever -- and until we are, I am loving, loving every tiny minute of the day and night -- Maybe you won't understand this, but sometimes when I miss you most, it's hardest to write -- and you always know when I make myself -- Just the ache of it all -- and I can't tell you. If we were together, you'd feel how strong it is -- you're so sweet when you're melancholy. I love your sad tenderness -- when I've hurt you -- That's one of the reasons I could never be sorry for our quarrels -- and they bothered you so -- Those dear, dear little fusses, when I always tried so hard to make you kiss and forget --

Scott -- there's nothing in all the world I want but you -- and your precious love -- All the material things are nothing. I'd just hate to live a sordid, colorless existence -- because you'd soon love me less -- and less -- and I'd do anything -- anything -- to keep your heart for my own -- I don't want to live -- I want to love first, and live incidentally -- Why don't you feel that I'm waiting -- I'll come to you, Lover, when you're ready -- Don't don't ever think of the things you can't give me -- You've trusted me with the dearest heart of all -- and it's so damn much more than anybody else in all the world has ever had --

How can you think deliberately of life without me -- If you should die -- O Darling -- darling Scott -- It'd be like going blind. I know I would, too, -- I'd have no purpose in life -- just a pretty -- decoration. Don't you think I was made for you? I feel like you had me ordered -- and I was delivered to you -- to be worn -- I want you to wear me, like a watch -- charm or a button hole boquet -- to the world. And then, when we're alone, I want to help -- to know that you can't do anything without me.

I'm glad you wrote Mamma. It was such a nice sincere letter -- and mine to St. Paul was very evasive and rambling. I've never, in all my life, been able to say anything to people older than me -- Somehow I just instinctively avoid personal things with them -- even my family. Kids are so much nicer.
By F Scott Fitzgerald

2.) Dear (Name of receipent)

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good woman is a far cry from what you've been.
I watch sports so much to try to drown out your constant nagging. Too bad that doesn't work. I did notice when you cut off all of your hair last week, the first thing that came to mind was "You look just like a man!" My mother raised me to not say anything if you can't say anything nice. When you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY BROTHER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago. I went to sleep on you when you had on that new negligee because the price tag was still on it.
I prayed that it was a coincidence that my brother had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning and your negligee was $49.99. After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out.
So when I discovered that I had hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason I guess. I hope you have the filling life you always wanted. My lawyer said with your letter that you wrote, you won't get a dime from me. So take care.

Yours

The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers, etc.

Sample of Funny Romantic Letters

1.) Dear Miss,

I am very happy to inform you that I have fallen in Love with you since the 14th of October (Monday). With reference to the meeting held between us on the 27th of July. at 1500 hrs, I would like to present myself as a prospective lover.

Our love affair would be on probation for a period of three months and depending on compatibility, would be made permanent.

Of course, upon completion of probation, there will be continuous on the job training and performance appraisal schemes leading up to promotion from lover to spouse.

The expenses incurred for coffee and entertainment would initially be shared equally between us. Later, based on your performance, I might take up a larger share of the expenses. However I am broadminded enough to be taken care of, on your expense account. I request you to kindly respond within 30 days of receiving this letter, failing which, this offer would be cancelled without further notice and I shall be considering someone else. I would be happy, if you could forward this letter to your sister, if you do not wish to take up this offer.

Thanking you in anticipation,

Yours sincerely, Mr. Smart

Beloved,

There have been times when my emotions got the better of me and I have managed to make mistakes that I truly regret and wish that they should have never happened. I cannot begin to express how guilty I feel and I wish I could take back all the pain and grief that I caused you. If there is any way that I can make it up to you believe me, I will do anything to rectify the wrongs all I need is a second chance to make it all okay.

My dear love,

There has never been a question or a doubt about how much I love you and how much you mean to me. However, I know that what happened in the past few days makes you think otherwise. I have tried to talk you out of all the thoughts that have been worrying you and I can only assure that I love you and only you with all my heart. People make mistakes sometimes and I promise you that I will not let you down ever again. Please give me a second chance to make it all alright, for I love you and cannot live without you.

My love,

There are not enough words to begin to tell you how deeply sorry I am. In a moment of stupidity I hurt you unknowingly and now I know that I have made one of the gravest mistakes of my life. There is no one else in the world who means to me more than you do, and it hurts me more to thing that I have caused you pain. I will do anything in this world to make it all okay, all I need from you is your faith and trust and I assure you that I will bring back all the joys that life has to offer once again.

2.) Include emotional elements.

A truly sensual love letter is about so much more than physical attraction, even as it takes delight in such things. Mention your feelings throughout the letter either frequently or only a few times, depending on the sentimentality of your lover. These emotional elements will ground both of you in the real significance of your relationship, and will serve to make the physical temptations all the more delightful.

3.) Notice the little things.

Sensuality is all in the details. Bring up the traits or qualities of your lover—mention a physical quirk of theirs that fascinates you, or how they do a certain activity in a special way. Paint a picture with your words of how beautiful it looks whenever you see it, and how it makes you feel. Showing that you’ve noticed something so small and personal about them will definitely flatter them.

4.) Keep it subtle.

Of course, moderation is best in all things. The same element of your love letter that is pleasing and titillating the first time might not be so special if you repeat it over and over. Don’t layer on too many gushy words. Finding the crucial balance between the elements of sentiment, emotion, and sensuality is what will make your letter irresistible. Read over a draft of your letter and try to see if it is more heavily weighted in some areas than in others.

5.) Hide the letter somewhere special.

Once you’ve finished the letter, you only have to deliver it. You can certainly email it or use the post office, of course, but the most romantic thing of all would be to leave it somewhere where your lover will find it. If you and your lover live in the same house, leave the letter in a personal location such as on their pillow or rolled up in their coffee mug. If not, try and find an opportunity to slip it into their bag or purse when they aren’t looking. Chances are that they’ll be thrilled at the discovery!
