Dear DM,
It has been a while since my last confession. I have been dreaming about you. Beautiful, intimate, sexy dreams that are for your eyes alone. There are moments when all my edges soften and I become pure poetry.
My only excuse for not writing sooner is my mood. I don’t like the look of the world right now. It feels like a prison. I want to go out. I want to see, do, and be in some meaningful way. I think how can I make the ordinary beautiful? How can I make my experience of life more delicious using only the ingredients I have at hand?
I could just write brilliant lives into being. I could make love with life itself. I could slip into my imagination the way skin slides against silk but all I have done for the last few days is cry. I am feeling better but there are still more tears left to spill. It is when the sky is darkest that we see more clearly the stars. I am starting to see/to remember the beauty in darkness. There is something erotic about darkness, the way it envelopes you, the way it is and isn’t at the same time, like an enigma.
I have been thinking a lot about love. I have been thinking about an Oscar Wilde quote which I haven’t been able to locate but is something like this Every time we fall in love, it is like the first time we have ever loved. Every time we fall in love we discover something within ourselves we had not known to exist, something which is totally authentic, and perhaps born from the love itself. I fall in love with you every day and every day I become someone new.
I don’t know very much about the art of seduction. I am innocent. Inexperienced. I am also curious and playful. I love naughty things but I also love romance, beautiful impractical romances that defy explanation. I want to see you wearing nothing but a blush. You ask me for a sign in the readings and I find myself torn between innuendo and bravado. What should I say to you? What can I do? I will read this letter to you, let my words scald your mouth. Taste them.
With everything that I am your DF,
PS) I do have a recording of the letter but for now you will simply have to imagine it 😉
There is an Oscar Wilde quote: “EACH TIME THAT ONE LOVES IS THE ONLY TIME ONE HAS EVER LOVED.
❤ This was beautiful to read ❤
Thank you so much! I could not quite recall it and it was driving me crazy 😂
