Love Note
My dearest love:
Sitting here in the darkened cell somewhere after the midnight hours, early before the pre-dawn light. I can still feel your arms around me. Hear you breathing ever so gently around me. If I look hard enough, I can still see the smile on your face leftover from yesterday's summer gaze fired in your eyes, so filled with so much eagerness. ❤
I remember when on a road trip back from Angles Camp, you had me stop at this little country store with all the fruit. You bought two of everything, including two bottles of red wine. From there, we drove down through lone onto country roads, past empty fields. We stopped by the creek where an old roadhouse call the Bridgehouse once stood. You got the blanket out. I carried the --- and the wine. We walked up above the creek to that big old oak tree. We sat in the shade of that tree all of that day, eating the summer's fruit, drinking the summer wine, while a warm breeze blew gently around us. We brought a lot that day and talked about our love and how happy we were and how we wished it to last forever.
It only took the emptiness of this cell to bring the memories of all the happiness we shared back to me. Now I have to stop for a while, as the saltwater from some ocean swim has returned to fill my eyes.
I'll love you always.
Forever and ever,
Your Steve
