A Love Letter

Wow, I just received this letter from Jokyshe. He never ceases to amaze me...

Dearest Maranwë,

I know I have been away for awhile now and I wanted to write you letting you know how I have missed you. You are the most amazing person I have ever known and it has been a real honor being with you these last few months.

How I love your hair as it leaves me standing in complete awe as it flickers in the sunlight. The strands of your hair are like the flames of a fire to which every eye is attracted. Just as a small flame can warm the coldest of bodies, your hair brings the warmth of blood to my body, leaving me begging for another glance.

While most women would be lucky to have your hair alone, you are endowed with so many other physical perfections: such as your eyes. Most say that eyes are the gates to the heart. If this is true, then what I see in your eyes is the most astonishing aspect of your entire physical appearance. Your eyes radiate love, friendship, and trust like few others that I have seen in my life. They bring joy and comfort to me every time I gaze upon them. To say that they are perfect does not do justice to the qualities that your eyes reveal.

I have heard that lips are only good for kissing; I would have to disagree. The reason for this disagreement is simple; your lips highlight the rest of your unquestionably breathtaking face. The way that words seem to linger on your lips sends chills down my spine. This doesn’t even take into account your smile, which is absolutely phenomenal. You have such an eloquent smile that you can say nothing at all and still melt my heart.

The passionate way you live life is inspirational, as you seem to have the perfect balance of all things. You are highly intelligent, thoughtful, and perceptive. To say that I am lucky to be with you is an understatement. You are by far the friendliest person that I have even met. You are truly amazing even without your overwhelming beauty.

While I wish I could come back to be with you, my place is here with my men. The war is going slower than I had anticipated and it might be another month before I will be able to see you. However, just remember that though the distance may be great, my heart is yours and no man or beast can ever take it away from you.

In Love,
Jokyshe
