A good man would say to you, “No, love, don’t wait for me. Live your life.” A good man would be happy that you were off somewhere in the world doing all the things you deserve. But, Miss Ada, I am no good man. I am, in fact, selfish, very bleeding selfish when it comes to you. Good man or no, I will tell you I believe a life lived without love is one not worthy of living a’tall.","author":"Eden Butler","tags":["historical-romance","love-letters","world-war-ii"],"id":167813,"author_id":"Eden+Butler"},{"text":"But when one does not complain, and when one wants to master oneself with a tyrant’s grip — one’s faculties rise in revolt — and one pays for outward calm with an almost unbearable inner struggle.","author":"Charlotte Brontë","tags":["000-years-of-love-letters","2","bottling-it-up","emotional-pain","emotions","emotions-and-control","inner-struggle","love","love-letters","self-control","unrequited-love"],"id":193305,"author_id":"Charlotte+Bront%C3%AB"},{"text":"Love can be expressed in a myriad of different methods, but the most timeless and most treasured will always remain the classic love letter.","author":"Auliq Ice","tags":["dating","falling-in-love","internet-dating","love","love-at-first-sight","love-confession","love-express-language","love-expressed","love-letter","love-letters","love","love-story","online-dating"],"id":207136,"author_id":"Auliq+Ice"},{"text":"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...Even if you did not love me I could not help an entire devotion to you.","author":"John Keats","tags":["bright-star","john-keats","love-letters","poetry"],"id":222218,"author_id":"John+Keats"},{"text":"The letter had been crumpled up and tossed onto the grate. It had burned all around the edges, so the names at the top and bottom had gone up in smoke. But there was enough of the bold black scrawl to reveal that it had indeed been a love letter. And as Hannah read the singed and half-destroyed parchment, she was forced to turn away to hide the trembling of her hand. —should warn you that this letter will not be eloquent. However, it will be sincere, especially in light of the fact that you will never read it. I have felt these words like a weight in my chest, until I find myself amazed that a heart can go on beating under such a burden. I love you. I love you desperately, violently, tenderly, completely. I want you in ways that I know you would find shocking. My love, you don't belong with a man like me. In the past I've done things you wouldn't approve of, and I've done them ten times over. I have led a life of immoderate sin. As it turns out, I'm just as immoderate in love. Worse, in fact. I want to kiss every soft place of you, make you blush and faint, pleasure you until you weep, and dry every tear with my lips. If you only knew how I crave the taste of you. I want to take you in my hands and mouth and feast on you. I want to drink wine and honey from you. I want you under me. On your back. I'm sorry. You deserve more respect than that. But I can't stop thinking of it. Your arms and legs around me. Your mouth, open for my kisses. I need too much of you. A lifetime of nights spent between your thighs wouldn't be enough. I want to talk with you forever. I remember every word you've ever said to me. If only I could visit you as a foreigner goes into a new country, learn the language of you, wander past all borders into every private and secret place, I would stay forever. I would become a citizen of you.And there it stopped.","author":"Lisa Kleypas","tags":["angst","hannah-appleton","love","love-letters","passion","rafe-bowman","romance"],"id":225774,"author_id":"Lisa+Kleypas"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":25,"pages":3,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
