The Reply From his Rose

To L,

I have read your letter. Among the ones that I received today, it is yours I do find significant. You have a way with words, which I did not expect although I think it is sweet of you to announce your admiration for me. Pardon me for not having behaved properly when we exchanged greetings. I am not accustomed to being in large gatherings and meeting people I do not have any prior knowledge of. When it was your turn, unfortunately, I grew tired and a little unwilling to introduce myself. But when you stepped forward, I felt as if volts of electricity stunned my consciousness. I was not frightened, for you had and still have me enchanted.

I appreciate that you adressed the soirée as I would like you to know that it was a pleasure to be your partner. Ever since that night, I would rather dance with you a hundred more over anyone else. Your touch has lingered on me, and I believe I will not last a day without it. The look in your eyes, too, has not left me. Each time I gaze at the stars, I am reminded of yours and how much I get lost in it. Because of you, I have found a reason for me to be. I cannot put together the right words to describe exactly how I am feeling but I think what you have done to me is enough to speak for itself.

Our encounters are truly eventful, and I cannot wait to have the next one with you. I am enamored. Thank you for the most wonderful evening.

Sincerely,
A
