Great Love Letter


Though still in bed, my thoughts go out to you, my Immortal Beloved, now and then joyfully, then sadly, waiting to learn whether or not fate will hear us

I can live only wholly with you or not at all

Yes, I am resolved to wander so long away from you until I can fly to your arms and say that I am really at home with you, and can send my soul enwrapped in you into the land of spirits

Yes, unhappily it must be so

You will be the more contained since you know my fidelity to you. No one else can ever possess my heart - never - never - Oh God, why must one be parted from one whom one so loves. And yet my life in V is now a wretched life Your love makes me at once the happiest and the unhappiest of men

At my age I need a steady, quiet life
can that be so in our connection? My angel, I have just been told that the mailcoach goes every day
therefore I must close at once so that you may receive the letter at once

Be calm, only by a calm consideration of our existence can we achieve our purpose to live together - Be calm - love me - today - yesterday - what tearful longings for you - you - you - my life - my all - farewell. Oh continue to love me never misjudge the most faithful heart of your beloved.

ever thine
ever mine
ever ours

~Letter From Ludwig Van Bethoven to Immortal Beloved

Nice writing (^^)

Pertama kali denger di film Sex and the City dan langsung tersentuh begitu denger, setelah nonton film itu pertama kali yang di-googling adalah love letter ini.....

Tak bosan baca bait per bait, it's truly a lovely writing....
Tak pernah membayangkan bagaimana perasaannya dapat surat seindah ini
Dan semakin fenomenal "ever thine, ever mine, ever ours......"
