Is there a woman on this earth who doesn't cherish her old love letters?
Ned is a person I like and admire so much (obviously- he was my first kiss after all.) When we were in school together, his golden singing voice would hold me in a sort of enchantment. It was just too beautiful to belong to someone from Planet Earth. Now, in our adult lives, I've discovered that Ned is ALSO an incredibly gifted painter! What an amazing person. I am beyond flattered to look back on the love letters he wrote to me in high school.
I wish you were ugly, just so I can show you it's not just your gorgeous face and tender smile that makes my jaw drop. You're one of a kind, Jessi.
And behold, I became hungry, insomuch that I sought out food. And when I began to eat the food that I had so earnestly sought, there before me stood an angel, or one with the likeness of an angel, for her glory and brightness shone round about.
Though I know it's not profound, I miss you when you're not around. Your smile, your glow, it means more to me than you know... I fear more to wonder what might have happened had I risked to love you.
Love always- Jess
