Love Letter Dealing with New Found Love Inspite of Death in the Family

Have you suffered from a lost of a loved one? Only to find yourself at the crossroads with someone at the same situation as you are? Do you find yourself seeking solace and love from this person? Maybe you should try to express your feelings with this love letter and find the healing and acceptance you need


Dear Benjamin,

We suffer from the greatest of pains and know equally the greatest of sorrows- we had met at a time when we have both lost someone dear. Someone whom we had love more than ourselves for most of our lives.

Understandably, losing your young wife is your great heartache while I have the loss of my mother to bear. Life has not spared us from such tragedies. However, it is through these tragedies that we've met and found solace in each other's comforting words during those saddest hours.

My heart beats restlessly now, almost broken like fragile glass. I easily come undone because now I couldn't care less about what other people think or say. Death has scarred me to realize life is too short and indeed uncertain. I feel eager to love someone again and start anew. But I don't know how -- do you?

There is so much left unsaid when we meet and you just sit there and hold my hand for almost an eternity. A wonderful lifetime in my mind. There is so much I have in my heart to say, but I can't find the proper words. Lest I sound inapprorpiate, too forward or uncouth, would it be too much to ask? or just to know if you are ready as I am to love again?

I can wait, you know? I can give you the time of day and the space you need. Love can move us both forward from all of this. Love can help us heal. Love can bind us together. Love can make us see life with fresh eyes.

So let me know, okay?

Sarah
