One more time before you let me go. Let me feel your chest move again, let me feel the life of your being seep into mine. Everything you mean slips like as if sand through fingers that no longer seem to feel, a love vanishing into air spread out across wind transversing the stretches [&amp;#8230;]&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  <title>Love Letter, Nights of Whispers To You</title>
  <author>robertlyon</author>
  <link>https://robertlyon.livejournal.com/380746.html</link>
  <description>December 1944&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Dearest Lindsey:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have yet to fall in love but over the lonely years I’ve written nights of whispers to you, letters that never expect response for you are like rain on a warm sunny day. I speak to you this night where stars and flames light up the sky for battle never seems to cease. These precious moments where I can speak to you feel like fleeting lifetimes that play out in my thoughts over and over and over again. At least I try to savor them as such. Incessant bombs explode all around me and become the night, each explosion tears me just a little further from you, the whispers become just a little softer and sometimes I wonder if I am a soul lost in a vast sea that spans across all of existence...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Read the rest at...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.robertlyon.org/love-letter/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.robertlyon.org/love-letter/&lt;/a&gt;</description>
